About the displays

Introducing, our new ‘Stories in Focus’ displays. 

Stories in Focus is a new temporary display series hosted in the Museum’s Stock Office. These rotating displays will offer a closer look at standout objects from our collection, each chosen for its unique story and historical resonance. Next time you visit the Museum, look out for these new pop-up displays to gain a new perspective on the history of the Bank of England. 

Every few weeks, we’ll be spotlighting a different theme or item, inviting guest curators to shape the display and share fresh perspectives. Whether it’s a rare artefact, a curious document, or a forgotten moment in financial history, each display aims to spark conversation and offer new insights into the Bank’s past and present.
