Someone from the European Bread Museum called me back today. They have no architectural drawings of the windmill. They used to have a paper model on sale at the museum shop, but it was just of some other windmill or a generic windmill and not this particular one. They would be interested in selling a paper model but don't have any money to commission one. I made it clear that I wasn't angling for a commission.
I'm sure it would be possible to calculate the dimensions of the windmill using surveying equipment and triangulation. I mentioned this to a friend and he said they probably used laser devices for this purpose now. I think he's probably right, which disappoints me in a way. On the other hand, it might make it possible with fewer resources.
I think I could manage the triangulation but otherwise I don't have the first idea of how do this, so I don't think I would be able to realize this project. Maybe in another life.
