Overview
A central bank museum is an institution dedicated to preserving and showcasing the history of a country's central bank, its role in the economy, and the evolution of monetary policy. These museums often feature exhibits on the history of banking, currency, and finance, as well as the country's economic development. The Central Bank of Iran, for example, has a museum that showcases the country's monetary history, including the introduction of the rial as the national currency in 1932, and the role of the central bank in maintaining the value of the currency. The museum also features exhibits on the history of banking in Iran, including the establishment of the first commercial banks in the country, such as the Imperial Bank of Persia, which was founded in 1889 by [[barclays|Barclays]] and the British government.
