Larger groups are not yet able to visit the Money Museum, nor are in-house presentations on economic education, guided tours or workshops for children and young people currently possible. No more than 50 people are allowed to be inside the museum at any one time. “That’s because of our exhibition floor space, which is about 1,000 square metres in size. The rule of thumb is one person for every 20 square metres,” Mr Rosseaux says.
The Bundesbank’s Money Museum aims to provide a highly interactive experience where visitors are strongly encouraged to touch and feel the exhibits, so the museum’s precautions to control infection have been designed accordingly. Thus, frequently touched areas such as monitor touchscreens or the surface of the gold bar will be cleaned at short, regular intervals during opening hours. The health and safety of the museum’s visitors are paramount, so the hand-held receivers at the listening stations will be deactivated, and the museum shop and cafeteria will remain closed until further notice.
The museum’s opening hours are unchanged: every day (except Saturdays) from 09:00 until 17:00; admission is free.
