15 Euros Auberge de Bavière

The Auberge de Bavière in Valletta is the only surviving auberge still serving its original administrative function — it has housed Malta's Ministry of Health since the 1960s. The building dates to the early eighteenth century and was constructed for the Knights of St. John's Bavarian langue, one of the Order's eight national divisions.

Malta's small-format gold issues in this weight class are produced in limited quantities and rarely enter circulation, making the strike quality largely academic.
