Banknote Museum of Ionian Bank

Step into the former Ionian Bank building to follow Greece's modern history through its money. Banknotes, coins and the making of currency give this compact museum a clear theme.

Banknote Museum of Ionian Bank

Why go

A banknote can carry a political ambition or record an economic crisis. The displays span early Greek issues, later drachma notes and the change to the euro, while printing tools show how notes were made secure. Look closely at the design choices: these small objects tell a different history from Corfu's fortresses and palaces.

What to look for

  • Early Greek notes and later drachma designs trace changes in the state and its currency.
  • Printing plates and watermark displays explain how banknotes were produced.
  • The interactive Coin-o-rama offers a closer look at coins.

Useful to know

  • Fit the museum into an Old Town walk when you want an indoor stop with a focused subject.
  • Compare the imagery across different notes rather than trying to read every item in sequence.
