The Museum of Foreign Debt (Spanish: Museo de la Deuda Externa) was opened on April 28, 2005, in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The museum highlights the dangers of borrowing money from abroad. There are no English translations in the museum, everything is in the Spanish language. The 1998–2002 Argentine great depression that drove the 2001 riots in Argentina prompted the largest foreign debt default in history – approximately $100 billion USD.
