The souvenir zero-euro note has become a minor industry in France, with Oberthur Fiduciaire — the same firm that prints legal tender for the Banque de France — producing them under license from the European Central Bank. The arrangement grants these pieces genuine security features: the same intaglio printing, embedded strip, and UV-reactive elements found on circulating euro notes. They are legal tender in theory, worthless in practice, and collectible by design.
The Mémorial des Civils dans la Guerre in Falaise focuses specifically on the civilian experience of the Second World War in Normandy — a subject the town has particular reason to address. The August 1944 battle that closed the Falaise Pocket effectively destroyed the town centre.
