The 0 Euro souvenir note program launched in France in 2015 and has since issued several thousand different designs across European tourist sites. Oberthur Fiduciaire produces the entire series to standard euro security specifications — watermark, security thread, microprinting — which is precisely the point: these are genuine banknote-quality productions deliberately assigned a null denomination to sidestep legal tender regulations while maximizing collectibility.
Schloss Moers, a moated castle in the Lower Rhine region of North Rhine-Westphalia, is among the German sites added during the program's post-2020 expansion into non-French locations.
