Source: Eurostat HICP all-items index, 2015 = 100 (prc_hicp_minr). Year values are the average of the twelve monthly indices; only complete years are offered. The index follows the prices of what households buy, not wages. The result is in the same currency as the amount you enter: for years before a country adopted the euro, first convert the old currency at its official rate (for example 6.55957 French francs = 1 euro).
