Welcome to Moneyverse!
Money is more than just a means of payment. It connects and divides, is longed for and missed. It is a universal medium of exchange that we have used for thousands of years. Experience the phenomenon of money in the interactive, multimedia Moneyverse exhibition.
Moneyverse in 15 minutes
On the opening days from 10 to 19 April 2026, you can enjoy a 15-minute introduction by the Moneyverse hosts every hour and half hour. Admission and all activities are free of charge. Due to limited capacity, booking is recommended. With a ticket, you can join the short guided tours or explore the exhibition independently.
Exhibition
The Moneyverse presents insights into one of humanity’s most significant inventions. Four Money Worlds illuminate the subject from different perspectives: history, economics, society and the individual. Discover some of the objects we have used as money in the past, imagine the future of money on the Utopia Phone, and get a unique glimpse inside the workings of the Swiss National Bank. And in between take a break and listen to Pink Floyd’s ‘Money’ or Gwen Stefani’s ‘Rich Girl’ on the jukebox, or have a chat about money with one of our hosts waiting for you at the Money bar.
Tours
What are the functions of the Swiss National Bank? Why is Switzerland so rich? And does money make you happy? Take one of our audio walks, and stroll through the Moneyverse listening to experts from the fields of science, culture and finance. For around 40 minutes, they will offer insights, fascinating facts and stories, and leave you with plenty of food for thought about money. So put on the headset and get going!
Game
If you want a playful way to explore the topics in the Moneyverse, this game is for you: working in small groups, players collect points in four different Money Worlds. Among other challenges, you will have to safely transport stone money weighing many tons from one island to another, or show a banknote the way to your wallet. In between, personal questions prompt players to think about their own relationship with money. But be careful: unexpected game changers can send the game belly up at any moment – will the risk pay off or will you lose everything? Find out!
