Since its opening on the 15th of March in 2022, more than 300,000 people have visited the Hungarian Money Museum. In 2024, 103 988 people visited the permanent exhibition "The Path of Money", making it the most visited Money Museum in Europe.
14 January 2025, Budapest: last year, 251 museum education sessions were held in the interactive financial knowledge centre with 53 spectacular installations about 11 different topics. The Money Museum’s main target group of students in grades 7-12 visit the museum in groups, usually in the context of out-of-school lessons, accompanied by a teacher.
The Suitcase Museum - Journey around Money programme also introduced the institution to schools in disadvantaged areas that did not have the opportunity to visit the Money Museum in Budapest last year. In 2024, the museum's educators taught lessons on basic financial literacy to around 22,000 students in 160 schools. Last year, the most popular sessions were on 'Modern Money Management' and 'Family Budgeting'. The programme continued during the summer school holidays, with over 3,000 students taking part in playful financial education at the Erzsébet Camp in Zánka.
In 2024, the Money Museum hosted more than 300 different programmes, such as regular screenings of the films ‘The Gold Train’ and ‘The Founding’, numismatic workshops, coffee house talks, robotics sessions and financial quizzes. These programmes will continue this year.
All the exhibitions and programmes at the Money Museum are free of charge and accessible to all.
