 Original available by appointment only, the Bank of England Museum decided to "throw its doors open" to the general public, in preparation for the bank's tercentenary in 1994. A fire at the bank building forced a change of plans in 1986. Instead of opening in 1994, it decided to go ahead design the exhibits, which were completed in 18 months. The Bank of England Museum was opened to the public by Queen Elizabeth II in 1988.
