It’s actually alongside the Pont de Grenelle, about a mile downriver from the Eiffel Tower and facing southwest, towards its sister in New York City, but the film moves it around a little. The cypher points Gates and co to the less famous version of the Statue of Liberty (yes, it is real) which can be found in Paris at the southern tip of the Allée des Cygnes, the narrow artificial island running through the centre of the River Seine. The hotel is another screen regular – probably most famous from Beverly Hills Cop – and we’ll see more of it later. There’s only one person missing, but a brief shot of the Hoover Building in DC soon reintroduces Agent Sadusky ( Harvey Keitel) of the FBI.Ībigail naively passes on Ben Gates’ discovery to the scheming Wilkinson over drinks in the Gallery Bar and Cognac Room of the Millennium Biltmore Hotel, 506 South Grand Avenue on Pershing Square, Downtown Los Angeles. The lab in which they analyse the diary page and discover (surprise!) a secret cypher is the 1940 FE Weymouth Treatment Plant of the Metropolitan Water District System in La Verne, east of Los Angeles.

The mansion has been seen in numerous films including Ghostbusters, Joel and Ethan Coen's The Big Lebowski, Sam Raimi's Spider-Man trilogy (as the Osborne home), Star Trek Into Darkness, Brian de Palma’s Phantom Of The Paradise, The Witches of Eastwick, Christopher Nolan’s The Prestige and There Will Be Blood. This mansion isn’t open to the public, but the extensive formal gardens are (and admission is free).

The lecture hall, where Wilkinson interrupts Ben Gates’ talk with shocking evidence of the Gates’ treachery, is the George Washington Masonic National Memorial, 101 Callahan Drive, Alexandria, south of DC across the Potomac River in Virginia. Oddly, the Richmond was used as ‘Ford’s Theatre’ again in Harold Ramis’s disappointing Bedazzled (the 2000 revamp of 1960s comedy Bedazzled), with Brendan Fraser as (momentarily) Lincoln and Elizabeth Hurley as the Devil.

As far back as 1957 it appeared as the ‘Palace Theatre’ from which TV celeb Sonny MacGregor ( Peter Sellers) broadcasts in darkly satirical comedy The Naked Truth, as the ‘Buenos Aires’ theatre in which Eva Duarte ( Madonna) first meets Juan Peron ( Jonathan Pryce) in Evita, and it’s where Lawrence Talbot ( Benicio Del Toro) is playing Hamlet at the beginning of The Wolfman.
Opened in 1899 (34 years after the death of Lincoln) and designed by theatre architect Frank Matcham, the Richmond has featured regularly onscreen.
