| Obverse description | The obverse presents a vignette of the north-western facade of the Deutsches Museum (German Museum) in Munich, Bavaria, situated on its island in the river Isar — the riverbank partially visible at lower right. A scale replica of the Junkers Ju 52/3m trimotor aircraft (Inventarnr. 1995), colloquially known as "Tante Ju," is rendered in flight above the building, evoking the museum's celebrated aviation department. The composition is framed by guilloche underprint elements, with the denomination "0 EURO" and series identifier "EUROSOUVENIR 2023-2" inscribed within the design. |

| Reverse description | The reverse carries vignettes of six iconic European landmarks arranged across the field: the Brandenburg Gate (Berlin), Big Ben (London), the Eiffel Tower (Paris), the Colosseum (Rome), the Sagrada Familia (Barcelona), and the Manneken Pis (Brussels). A half-portrait of Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa occupies the right portion of the design, a recurrent motif in the Eurosouvenir series. The printer's imprint and denomination appear within the lower lettering band against a guilloche-patterned underprint. |

The 0 Euro souvenir note program, administered through a licensing arrangement with the European Central Bank, has produced hundreds of regional and institutional issues since its commercial launch around 2015. This Deutsches Museum release is the second in the series for that Munich institution — the "II" designation distinguishing it from an earlier print run. Oberthur Fiduciaire produces the entire souvenir series, which accounts for the consistent security specification: a genuine banknote watermark on authentic cotton substrate, making these legally compliant facsimiles rather than simple printed novelties.
