| Obverse description | Central vignette shows two children seated on the floor viewed from behind, watching a period East German television set within a typical DDR-era living room interior, complete with a wall unit housing books, a hi-fi system, and decorative items, all rendered in a purple-toned photographic underprint. To the left, the large guilloche zero numeral is printed in intaglio style, accompanied by the European Union flag and the date '2025-10'. At lower centre, the word 'Gemütlichkeit' (Cosiness) is printed in script lettering in red, with the 'EURO SOUVENIR' logo at lower left and a serial number at lower right. |

Euro Souvenir notes are a French-originated commercial concept launched around 2015, produced to European Central Bank specification dimensions and printed by licensed security printers — F.C. Oberthur among them — but carrying no legal tender status anywhere. The DDR Museum in Berlin, which opened in 2006 and focuses on everyday life in the German Democratic Republic, is a predictably popular subject for the format given its tourist footfall on the Spree riverfront opposite the Berlin Cathedral.
Collectors should note that Euro Souvenir issues depreciate rapidly once a venue updates its design or closes; the 2025 date here makes this a first-year example of whatever revised artwork the museum commissioned.
