Let's clean this up a little. This topic, which is basically a list of the mints and numismatic offices in the euro area, will be sticky and locked. The discussion about mint websites, sale conditions, and so on, is now here:

Addresses of Euro Mints - Discussion

That is also where everybody can post new information and corrections. Please consider this to be a work in progress ...

By the way - in some cases above you will see a note saying "earliest euro coins dated 1999". This simply refers to the dates on the coins; the euro and cent coins, even the ones dated 1999 or 2000 for example, were not available to the general public until December 2001, and were not legal tender until 1-Jan-2002. Monaco, San Marino and the Vatican are not euro area member states but have been part of "Euroland" since the beginning, due to monetary agreements with the European Union.
