The World of Music on Banknotes: A Visual Concert
At first glance, the connection between money and music may seem unusual, but a closer look reveals a fascinating world. Across countries and eras, music has been a recurring theme on banknotes. In this exhibition, the G+D Foundation presents 45 banknotes from its extensive collection, inviting visitors on a journey through sound, cultural heritage, and national identity. The exhibition is complemented by musician-themed medals from the coin collection.
In addition, at the top of every hour, interested visitors can gain insight into the history and inventory of the collection, which, with over 350,000 banknotes, is one of the most significant collections of its kind worldwide.
