Outstanding Women in Silver and a Break for 5-Euro Coins: Germany’s 2025 Commemorative Coin Programme
In 2025, several important events and figures will be honoured with German commemorative coins. Among them are the celebrations of the German city of Chemnitz being chosen as the European Capital of Culture and the 75th anniversary of the Berlinale film festival. In addition, a series dedicated to outstanding women will be issued. Several coin series, including series on social and cultural topics as well as on masterworks of German literature, will be continued or introduced.
