The Fed operates a museum at its new site, called '''The Money Museum'''. It offers visitors opportunities to learn about the functions of the Federal Reserve system and America's financial systems. Features of the museum include interactive exhibits, a visit to the automated, multi-story cash vault where millions of dollars are secured — one of the largest in the region, viewing of the [[Harry S.

The museum is open weekdays for self-guided tours and for one-hour guided tours, except holidays.<ref>[http://www.kansascityfed.org/moneymuseum/includes/index.cfm Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City, ''The Money Museum''] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080824212642/http://www.kansascityfed.org/moneymuseum/includes/index.cfm |date=2008-08-24 }}, Uploaded 25 July 2008.</ref>
