The guided tour “Money – The Oldest Religion?” invites you on Pentecost Sunday to an impressive discovery experience at the Cultural and City Historical Museum Duisburg. The focus is on the exhibition Cash! A History of Money – a cultural historical journey through power, trust, value, and exchange.
Between the Exchange Shelf and World History
When money appears to be omnipresent and yet mysterious, this city tour opens eyes to its history. Visitors follow the traces of coins, symbols, and economic orders and experience how closely money is intertwined with religion, society, and everyday culture. Those who wish can bring something for the exchange shelf and discover the principle of giving and taking in a very direct way.
The Museum as a Stage of Duisburg's Memory
The Cultural and City Historical Museum at the inner harbor connects city history, cultural heritage, and illustrative exhibition design. Its location at Johannes-Corputius-Platz makes the visit particularly appealing: Between the Old Town, inner harbor, and historic city wall unfolds a place where Duisburg's development from early history to the present comes alive.
History to Touch in the Money Themed Room
The permanent exhibition Cash! takes visitors through the world history of money and shows why value arises not only materially but also culturally. The tour with Roland Wolf combines expertise, vivid examples, and local history into a compact cultural event of high experiential value. This mixture of knowledge, atmosphere, and museum visit is what makes it appealing.
