0 Euro banknote 2019 - Tour Eifel

0 Euro Banknote 2019 France – Tour Eiffel (Eiffel Tower) is a collectible souvenir banknote celebrating one of France’s most recognisable landmarks: the Eiffel Tower in Paris. This 2019 edition commemorates the 130th anniversary of the tower, which was completed for the 1889 Exposition Universelle, held in Paris to mark the centenary of the French Revolution. Designed as a keepsake for travellers and collectors, the banknote combines a famous Parisian monument with the distinctive format of the European zero-euro souvenir series.

The front features the Eiffel Tower, accompanied by the inscriptions “TOUR EIFFEL”, “1889” and “2019”. The dates highlight the tower’s historical significance and the 130-year milestone celebrated by this issue. Additional inscriptions include “SOUVENIR EURO” and “2019-5”, identifying the edition within the 2019 souvenir banknote releases. The signature of Richard Faille, associated with the Euro Souvenir banknote concept, also appears on the design.

The reverse features a panorama of six well-known European landmarks: the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin, Belém Tower in Lisbon, Eiffel Tower in Paris, Colosseum in Rome, Sagrada Família in Barcelona and Manneken Pis in Brussels. The Mona Lisa appears on the right-hand side. This shared reverse design connects the French souvenir banknote with the wider European tourist-banknote series and makes it attractive to collectors interested in European architecture, travel memorabilia and landmark-themed banknotes.

The zero-euro banknote is a collectible souvenir rather than legal-tender currency. It has no monetary purchasing power, despite its euro-style appearance. The 2019 Tour Eiffel 1889–2019 edition was printed by Oberthur Fiduciaire in France and belongs to the Euro Banknote Memory souvenir series. Its commemorative dates, recognisable landmark and European reverse design make it a fitting addition to a collection devoted to Paris, France or zero-euro souvenir banknotes.
