Avoid.

Admission prices are not posted anywhere at the entrance. However, for foreigners it is currently three US dollars which, ironically for a former bank building, amounts to daylight robbery.

What do you get for this entry price? The main floor is entirely dedicated to children and of no interest to adults. The small lower floor contains a good display of El Salvadoran bank notes from various periods. The Spanish language captions are basic, essentially showing the transition from non-currency forms of payment, to banknotes depicting agricultural practices, to those representing a more industrialised economy. The top floor contains very basic exhibits on four or five themes, including Catholicism and the importance of maize. The only vaguely interesting panel concerns the attractive Teatro in town, though even this is basic and pitched primarily at children.
