On January 13, 2024, St. Sophia of Kyiv National Conservation Area launches new zero-euro collector's notes featuring the eleventh-century architectural monument, the Golden Gate, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

It is symbolic that in the thirteenth century, the Golden Gate was one of the bastions that stood in the way of the Mongol-Tatar invasion, thus protecting European countries from it. It is noteworthy that the new euro note was issued shortly after the peace note was issued in Ukraine

The banknotes have the purple hue used for the 500 euro note, but they are the same size as 20 euro notes. The banknotes look like real euros and are made using the same technology used for real euro banknotes. The limited collection was produced in France.
