Austrian Schilling (ATS) Overview
The Austrian Schilling (ATS) served as the monetary unit of Austria from 1925 until the introduction of the euro in 2002. Its history reflects Austria's economic resilience through periods of political change and reconstruction. The currency was subdivided into 100 groschen and featured designs that celebrated Austrian culture and heritage.
Following Austria's adoption of the euro, the schilling was exchanged at a fixed rate of 13.7603 schillings per euro. Although no longer legal tender, old schilling banknotes and coins can still be redeemed at the Austrian National Bank indefinitely. The currency's legacy persists in the memories of Austrians and among collectors who value its historical significance.
Today, the Austrian Schilling is primarily of interest to historians, numismatists, and those studying European monetary integration. Its story offers insight into the economic transitions that shaped modern Europe, from the interwar period to the establishment of a shared currency.
