5,10,20,50, 100 and 200 notes. There are still 500 euro notes in circulation however these are becoming much rarer.

This comes down to individual preferences however, generally speaking, buying Euros before you travel can be a great idea. It is prudent to have some local currency with you when you land at your destination and it is also very convenient, especially if you find a good exchange rate and want to avoid the headache of finding a currency exchange place when you arrive.
Also carrying a large amount of cash while traveling can be risky, so it may be safer to exchange money before you travel and then leave some funds in a safe in your hotel room whilst you are out and about.
Lastly, check the fees. Sometimes fees for exchanging money in a foreign country can be higher than exchanging money before you travel especially if relying on ATMs, you are also at the bureau's mercy should you leave it to exchanging at the airport when you arrive.
