"Die Moral von der Geschichte verstehe ich mitnichte." – "I don't get the moral of the historical"

The hand inside raises its own cut-off forefinger. On the pedestal is the sentence: "Die Moral von der Geschichte verstehe ich mitnichte." – "I don't get the moral of the historical". On the ceiling inside the showcase, a picture of the earth can be seen what it might look like when the sea level rises by 60 meters. If both poles completely melt, this would mean an increase of 67 meters.
