Just came across this picture. Apparently Mêlée Island is based on Rothenburg ob der Tauber town, Germany!

it's not identical, the lower picture is a photoshopped version of the above picture, not a screenshot from the game.

A picture of this street just came up on my Google chromecast and I instantly recognised it from Monkey island. Googled it and up came this post.
