Bank of England Museum

About

The Bank of England Museum tells the 300-year story of one of the world's most influential central banks, housed within the Bank's own headquarters on Threadneedle Street in the City of London. Highlights include genuine gold bars that visitors can lift, a vast collection of banknotes spanning three centuries, interactive trading screens, and exhibits on the bank's pivotal role in moments from the South Sea Bubble to the 2008 financial crisis. Admission is free, making it a surprisingly engaging and child-friendly stop in the heart of the Square Mile.
