Verhaal op zaal: Geldgeschiedenis

On the venue's site

Step in with the curator! Would you like to discover more about the remarkable objects in our money collection? Join one of our curators on a tour and give your visit an extra level at De Nieuwe Schatkamer. During this tour you get a unique look behind the scenes and discover why objects from the past still have so much to tell us today. Why does the head of King Willem-Alexander appear on the Dutch euro coin? What do leaves and music have to do with banknotes? And how did the Romans use coins as a powerful means of communication? Our curators take you through the history of money and show how surprisingly relevant that history is. You are guaranteed to look at money – and at the past – with a different perspective. Admission to De Nieuwe Schatkamer and the tour are free. Accessibility: the tour passes several locations and floors. Do you have difficulty climbing stairs?
