Offers a multifaceted range of themes through its six permanent galleries: Children’s Gallery, the Bank Negara Malaysia Gallery, Economics Gallery, Islamic Finance Gallery, Numismatics Gallery and Art Gallery.
The purpose of the Museum is to educate the public on Malaysia’s economy and economic history as well as the Central Bank’s role in the nation’s economic development. It’s has a collection of ancient coins and money (and a slick interactive screen to examine their history).
