Which design is to be used?: Survey on new euro banknotes coming to an end
What will the euro banknotes look like in the future? For weeks, the European Central Bank has been asking citizens for their opinion on the drafts - today the survey ends.
The European Central Bank's (ECB) online survey on the design of new euro banknotes ends today, September 21. Over 9 million people have already participated, and their input will be considered when the ECB Governing Council makes its final decision at the end of 2026. The new banknotes will feature either famous Europeans, such as Leonardo da Vinci and Marie Curie, or European natural ecosystems, including rivers and birds like the white stork and kingfisher.
The new notes will also have enhanced security features to prevent counterfeiting and be designed to be more durable and accessible for people with visual impairments.
