Casa Tranquila

Location from Breaking Bad by Vince Gilligan

The nursing home where Hector Salamanca spent his final years in a wheelchair — until the day he rang his bell one last time and blew up the man who killed his family's honor.

Casa Tranquila is Hector Salamanca's prison — the nursing home where he was deposited after his stroke, unable to speak, unable to move, communicating only through a bell. Gus visited to taunt him. Walt visited to offer revenge. The pipe bomb detonation killed both Hector and Gus. Hector's final act was to look Gus in the eye and ring the bell — not to say yes or no, but to trigger the explosion. Casa Tranquila went from 'the quiet house' to the site of the most famous assassination in television.

Appearance

A quiet Albuquerque nursing home. Peaceful. Mundane. The kind of place where nothing happens — until a pipe bomb detonates in a patient's wheelchair.
