As for the whole Holland/Netherlands thing, I am well versed in it, having lived there for 9 years, and having Dutch parents and family.

The model, depicts an area near Arnhem, during Operation Market Garden, this is straight from the old bestpapermidel website which you can check on the wayback machine.

lol, so i'm wrong in some assumptions.....and i did not check the original description.
this is a windmill in arnhem that slightly resembles the windmill in the diorama. if you click on the "google maps" option, you can view any windmills on the map in the arnhem area, but most of them are the wrong type.....
the windmill i've linked to is a relocated one, it was originally based in Noordlaren, Groningen and moved to the Arnhem open air museum in the 1950's......
