Client Review on Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta

Feedback:

This exhibit is free to the public. Since it’s located in the building of the FED, security is a bit tighter: One has to show photo ID, go through a metal detector, and store all items in one of the lockers they provide. Also, there are no photographs allowed inside.The museum features some information about the history of money, counterfeit bills, etc. There are also a few interactive stations like feeling the weight of a gold bar. In addition, visitors can watch two rather dorky films on the role of the FED/ monetary policy. Since the items on display are not that plentiful, you probably have a better experience being part of a guided tour.Visitors who care to pick up a small plastic bag of shredded currency can do so at the free publication kiosk in the foyer.The FED is located downtown Atlanta, so parking can be a bit of an issue. Normally, one should be able to find a metered parking ($2 an hour) close by, though.
