I know it was originally *released* in Italian, but I was curious if the movie was originally filmed in Italian.

It was an Italian made film, but actually shot in Spain, where most of the spaghetti westerns were shot.
As an italian made movie, the sound would not have been shot live. This means that the actors would have spoken whatever they wanted and the dialogue would have been dubbed in post production.
This was the traditional way of making movies in italy and was because of the poor sound proofing in their studios and the difficulty of keeping italian crews and spectators quiet.

All the actors spoke in their own languages. The only actors who spoke English were the three main characters and the one-armed man who was at the beginning of the movie and later confronts Tuco in the bathroom.
The director, Sergio Leone, did not speak English, so he communicated with the actor who played Tuco, Eli Wallach, in French.

It was also filmed in Italy. That is where they get the term Spaghetti Western from.
