The man, arrested Saturday in Strasbourg, had another 13,000 Swiss francs (11,900 euros, $13,500) concealed in his clothes, the officials said.
The man told customs agents that he lived in Spain and worked as a dish washer at a restaurant in the Balearic Islands.
But a sniffer dog detected marijuana on the bank notes hidden in his clothing.
That led to an X-ray that revealed the presence of nine condoms stuffed with bank notes in the man's intestines.
