25+ Years of the Euro (€)

4 January 1999 – 4 June 2026

It wasn't until 1999 that the euro really began its journey, when 11 countries (Austria, Belgium, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Portugal and Spain) fixed their exchange rates and created a new currency, with monetary policy passed to the European Central Bank. Today, the euro is over 25 years old.
