Museum of Foreign Debt

Museum of Foreign Debt, Economics museum at University of Buenos Aires, Argentina

The Museum of Foreign Debt is located at the Faculty of Economic Sciences at the University of Buenos Aires and displays documents, photographs, and multimedia exhibits. These materials explain how Argentina's international financial relationships have shaped the country's economic path over time.

The museum opened on 29 April 2005 with the exhibition "Foreign Debt: Never Again", after the 1998–2002 crisis and the December 2001 riots led Argentina to default on roughly $100 billion, the largest sovereign default in history. The idea came in 2001 from graduate students and professors of the Faculty of Economic Sciences, who wanted a space to teach the debt's history from 1810 onward.

The museum's guided tours and free admission make it a teaching space for university students and school groups. In April 2011 it presented "Marcianos", an animated series co-produced with the Ministry of Education and the Yoquer studio, launched at an event presided over by Cristina Fernández de Kirchner in the Salón de las Mujeres del Bicentenario.

The museum is housed within the Faculty of Economic Sciences building and offers free entry for visitors. Hours tend to be limited to weekday mornings, so it is worth confirming availability before planning your visit.

Rather than displaying traditional collections, this museum traces economic decisions and their consequences since 1810 through specialized educational material. This approach to understanding history through financial cause and effect sets it apart from conventional museums.
