About Money & Ukiyo-e Museum
The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ Money Museum (三菱東京UFJ銀行貨幣資料館) is a numismatic museum located in Nagoya, central Japan.
As "Tokai Bank Money Museum", it opened in 1961. After a name change due to bank mergers, the present name was adopted in 2006. In 2009, it relocated to its present location near the Akatsuka-shirakabe (赤塚白壁) bus stop on Dekimachi-dori. It contains 10,000 exhibits of world currency. Utagawa Hiroshige's Ukiyo-e, "Fifty-three Stages of the Tokaido", also owns.
With the aim of contributing to society by preserving cultural properties and educating the public about them, this museum owns around 15,000 rare coins and bank notes and 1,800 ukiyo-e woodblock prints which are put on public display.
