The funeral of Marco Sciarra (Alessandro Cremona) sequence, according to the James Bond Locations blogspot, "was filmed around the Museum of Roman Civilization (Museo della Civiltà Romana) (in Piazza Giovanni Agnelli, Rome, Lazio, Italy) in EUR (the Esposizione Universale District), south of the city center of Rome. The funeral was staged in between the columns that connects the two large wings, which houses the museum. The film team was actually supposed to film the funeral scene at the Verano cemetery, which is a famous early nineteenth century cemetery in the central part of Rome, close to the Termini Station. It boasts the graves of several Italian cultural icons. However, the film team was refused to film there by an ancient Christian confraternity, namely the Arciconfraternita di Carità verso i Trapassati. Thus, the team had to relocate to the EUR district and use the museum to recreate a mausoleum. The cemetery is reminiscent of the Slumber cemetery in Agente 007 - Una cascata di diamanti (1971). The film crew converted the area to a cemetery with fake headstones between the columns before filming took place. The museum itself consists of fifty-nine sections, which illustrate the history of Roman civilization." In Solo per i tuoi occhi (1981), another shooting location interruption was also caused by a religious group, which risked to stop the production filming with the matter going to court. The monks who lived in the monastery on top of the Meteora Mountain placed sheets and plastic on top of the roofs and external infrastructure so as to halt filming. A special hearing of the Greek Supreme Court was convened, where a panel of judges decreed that the monks only had rights over the interiors of the mountain top monastery, but the exteriors were the domain of the people and the local government. The film crew was eventually able to film at the location. They did not film inside the monastery (known as St. Cyril's in this movie), but built a set on top of a neighboring rock for some of the hideout's exteriors. The interiors were filmed back at Pinewood Studios.
