The Silesian Uprisings — three separate Polish insurrections between 1919 and 1921 — were the direct reason Upper Silesia was ultimately partitioned between Germany and the newly reconstituted Polish state, a boundary decision finalized by the League of Nations in 1922. This souvenir note commemorates that centennial. The 0 Euro format is licensed by the ECB specifically for collector issues of this kind; Oberthur Fiduciaire, one of the primary security printers behind genuine euro banknote production, handles the physical manufacture, which accounts for the cotton substrate and watermark security feature despite the notes having no monetary function.
Małgorzata Pławecka-Jasek is credited as designer — an unusual degree of attribution transparency for a souvenir program that typically treats its design work anonymously.
