The Musée Européen de Schengen sits on the site where, in June 1985, the Schengen Agreement was signed aboard the riverboat MS Princesse Marie-Astrid, moored at the confluence of the French, German, and Luxembourgish borders. The museum's souvenir zero-euro program makes pointed use of that geography — the note is technically a Luxembourg issue commemorating a treaty that dismantled the very border controls it straddles.
Oberthur Fiduciaire printed the series with genuine security features, including a eurion constellation and UV-reactive elements, which is standard practice for the souvenir euro format established by the French collector market after 2015.
