Renunciation in Nietzsche Haus Naumburg

in the entrance hall of the Nietzsche home in Naumburg one can read on the wall a rather rare, frank, honest statement which can regrettably not be said of many such "historical" houses in the world...

when preparing for the opening of this otherwise previously neglected house, from the 1991 purchase to opening in 1994, it would admittedly have been possible to gather period pieces to furnish the rooms as they might have been in the time of Nietzsche's youth and/or mental incapacity.
but, as it is written in the last sentence, a decision was taken to be honest about his things 'that had been lost forever'.
