Ola and new taka,history of all the times changes Mony.

it is a fine money museum for all kinds of people. It is located at Bangladesh Bank Training Academy in Mirpur 2.

To speak the truth, I did not expect such a good experience. The architecture of the museum itself is eye catching. The open space design gives you an impression of freedom and relief. Then comes the main attraction, i.e. the notes and coins. Starting from Mourya age to the present day Bangladesh, the coins and notes from all the ages have been presented. My favorite are the silver coins from the Mughal era and the gold coins from the Sultanate of Delhi. There are coins from the British era, notes from the Pakistan era, and all the notes from 1971 to 2021. There are the casts used for minting coins, and the commemorative coins. You can buy commemorative notes and coins which can be collected as souvenir (the coins are a bit expensive though). The funniest part is the photo kiosk where you can take your photo and print it on a one hundred thousand taka note. All in all, great experience and highly recommended. Oh, the entry is free, and Thursday is closed.

Only museum in Bangladesh for currency. Here you can find all historic currency. you can also collect souvenir currency from here.

A very beautiful place, visiting here I came to know about the old money of Bangladesh and the money of different countries of the world.

Excellent place for curious persons. This is the first and only museum in Bangladesh which deal with the history of numismatics though National museum and other museum have some objects regarding this subject matter.

The location is very prominent place, just stone throw distance from the National Cricket Stadium. The entry fee is free for all.

Very good place for family visit. The environment is awesome.

(Translated by Google) On the way to the boy Neil's school, Rose sees the money at the museum, one day he will see it. I went with the boys one day. Bangladesh Bank's money museum is located next to the rural office at Mirpur 2. At first sight it seemed very good. Beautiful architecture, aesthetic infrastructure and floral enclosure captivated the mind. I entered my phone with the name of my two sons and entered. The two galleries of the museum are arranged in layers, with coins of various shapes and notes on color paper. Seeing the ancient gold and silver of the Indian subcontinent, the boys are moving forward. Harikela has also caught the eye of civilization, coins of the Sultanate period of Delhi and Bengal, the Mughal and the common currency of the British period. Seeing these ancient coins of curry, zinc, silver, copper and gold, the eyes of the king are waning. There is a leak of money, one paise, four fetches, old fine handsome one, two bucks, five bucks. Different information and history of currency and notes are available through the digital touch screen, but it is better to look at the coins than in your own eyes. There were also several commemorative notes of Bangladesh, 1 rupee note, 5 rupee note, 20 rupees. I saw some money in different countries, how different and how colorful they all are. They printed two notes of one lakh rupees with pictures of my Ducklings for only 5 rupees. Great souvenir. The money museum is open from 7am to 5pm on Saturdays and Wednesdays, except Thursdays and public holidays. I am thinking of taking my wife this time.

Amazing place. Neat and clean. But sometimes their some machine doesn't work. And good thing is, you don't have to buy tickets.😗

It’s really a helpful thing for next generation..

I found it amazingly. It is totally air conditioned as well as it has also separate washroom for male and female. It has also rest room and pure drinking water facilities with neutral, cool and hot temperature. Washroom needs to be more cleaned. Price of the food near side museum needs to be reasonable. The most interesting fact is that it is totally free for visitors. All of you can visit there and can get immense knowledge of the evolution of monetary systems. Many things associated with money could have been included.

Really nice museum

The collection of coins and notes are very wide. The place is clean,and secured. Theg have some very peculiar notes, for example,40tk note. They collected coins from British raj to current Bangladesh era.

One of the best thing in Mirpur. This museum deserve more. If we go there then we can learn about our money history and others countries money history too. They have enough technology and good behavior. If you go Mirpur 2 then you should go there. ❤️❤️

ladesh Bank established the museum, the first of its kind in the country, beside the Bangladesh Bank Training Academy with a collection of over three thousand coins and currency notes. Keeper of the Taka Museum Dr Achia Khanom Likhon said:“Former Bangladesh Bank Governor Dr Atiur Rahman took the initiative in 2012 to establish the museum equipped with modern technology and facilities to preserve and exhibit the history and tradition of currency,” reported UNB. “In 2009, the museum was established on the third floor of the main building of the central bank at Motijheel, but that was not open to all. Now, visitors can visit the ‘Taka Museum’free of cost.” At the museum, coins and currencies are currently exhibited in two galleries. The first contains 43 display cases with approximately 1100 objects.  The story of the evolution of coins and currencies starts right here. The gallery shows its visitors how people traded goods long before the tradition of coins and bank notes prevailed. The ancient silver punch marked coins of the fourth to second century BC (Before Christ)speak of the earliest history of coins in Indian subcontinent. The collection also includes Kushan coins from 30 to 375 AD (Anno Domini), Indo Greek Silver coins from 2nd to 1st century AD, Cowry shells, Harikel Coin from 7th to 9th century AD.

A place where you can found all types of currency over the world from the very beginning civilization till now.

Great experience to knowing about bangladeshi taka history

This museum is presenting the physical currencies of the historical era. This museum contains all kinds of physical currencies from the Saltanat era to as of now. Some brief descriptions about the financial transaction histories are being presented in this museum. Along with the financial transaction history and physical currencies of the Indian subcontinent, this museum is also presenting physical currencies of many countries like Japan, the USA, UK, etc.

Here any visitors can visit this Museum for free. The history of Bangladeshi currency, all coin and notes are available here to see. Also a international Gallery with 156 countries currency.

A very good initiative by the central bank of Bangladesh. Here you can find all the currencies of Bangladesh of different era. Other countries currencies also preserved here for showing purpose.

The Taka Museum is a numismatic museum located in the capital’s Mirpur that displays currencies used in Bangladesh from the ancient times to the present. Nice museum indeed!

Collection is good but the lighting setup is terrible. Items can not be seen properly. Design & texture on coins are not visible due to this lighting problem. No entry fee is needed. Taking photo and video inside the museum is prohibited. Two galleries were open when I visited there. One with local currencies, from different ages of this region. Other with different foreign currencies. Different commemorative coins can also be bought from here.

Taka Museum was established first as a Currency Museum in 2009 at the 3rd floor of the main building of Bangladesh Bank at Motijheel. But that was not open to all. Considering the importance and necessity Dr. Atiur Rahman, honorable governor of Bangladesh Bank took the initiative to establish a full fledge currency museum in 2012 equipped with modern digital facilities, technology, architecture & art so that the glorioushistory and traditions of our currency can be preserved in a befitting manner. Later on this currency museum was named as Taka Museum. Taka Museum started its journey on 27 April, 2013 with the foundation stone laid by Sheikh Hasina, honorable Prime Minister of the Government of the People's Republic of Bangladesh. The museum was inaugurated formally on 5 October, 2013 by Dr. Shirin Sharmin Chowdhury, honorable Speaker of the national assembly. From then the museum is declared open to all.

You can find all currency including coin and money of Bangladesh. This place is very small but well decorated. You can learn a lot regarding Bangladeshi currency. If you want you can also buy old currency from there.

You can go there because there are a good collection of our history. Also you can see the oldest coins n note of Mogul empire. There are also a good collection of foreign countries note n coins.

Every time I get a new experience with the Taka Museum
