Where is that village located?

Since I'm from the Netherlands I'm curious to know what village they used as a filming location.
It looks typically Dutch.

Sure, I checked the filming locations and this is what it says:

Amsterdam, Noord-Holland, Netherlands
Batenburg, city of Wijchen, Gelderland, Netherlands
Herwijnen, Gelderland, Netherlands
Lopikerdijk West, Lopik, Utrecht, Netherlands
Megen, Noord-Brabant, Netherlands
Woudrichem, Noord-Brabant, Netherlands
Zwolle, Overijssel, Netherlands
Silute, Lithuania
Vilnius, Lithuania

Can anyone tell?
And the bridge they film at the end looks familiar as well... but I'm not too sure about that.

And on a side note: I was surprised to see all that snow, as Dutch winters aren't that snowy anymore these days.

I emailed the director and here is his response :

The movie was shot on different locations in both The Netherlands and Lithuania, see: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0795441/locations.
