Suggested correction: Delft was used as a location, but the town square is not all that different from what an early modern North German city would look like. You can spot it if you know the place, but that applies to so many movies. In itself this is not a mistake, unless there were something that really betrayed it.

Plot hole: Supposedly the plague broke out the moment the rats poured into the docks, as well as the plague breaking out when the rats got on the boat. However, these are domesticated rats. Only the fleas on black rats would carry the "Black Death," which is spread by fleas that aren't carried by other rats.
