| Comments |
Ávila's medieval walls, completed largely in the late eleventh and twelfth centuries, are among the best-preserved circuit walls in Europe — roughly 2.5 kilometers of granite enclosing the old city, with 88 towers still standing. The site has held UNESCO World Heritage status since 1985. Oberthur Fiduciaire has printed the bulk of Spain's commemorative zero-euro souvenir notes since the format gained traction after 2017, producing them to legal-tender specifications without any actual tender status. This one is a tourist piece, full stop — sold at the site, never redeemable, and designed from the outset for flat storage rather than a wallet.
