Do I need a converter for my iPhone charger in Europe?
Do I need to get a special plug to convert 240 current in Eurpoe to 110 volt current to charge my
phone?

Europe is a big place, with a variety of sockets.
https://www.travelguide-en.org/power-plugs-and-sockets-used-in-europe/
There are adapter sets as mentioned above, or you can acquire a USB-A or USB-C 5W charger when you get to whatever country or countries you’re in, and quite possibly either acquire a charger from the front desk at the hotel or from the hotel junk drawer or gift shop or a local news stand, and various hotels will also have in-room USB-A or USB-C sockets.
Airports will absolutely have these too, but they'll be more expensive.
In some hotels, the bathrooms have shaver sockets for plugging in with US plugs at higher voltages, as most (all?) shavers are multi-voltage, as are most (all?) Apple iPhone chargers.
The yellow-highlighted part is the important part here. 100V to 240V, and both 50 Hz and 60 Hz covers ~anything you’ll encounter. This assuming the plug fits the multi-voltage shaver socket. It won’t fit the standard sockets, of course. (That’s where the adapters can help. They don’t adapt the voltage or the frequency. Just the physical socket. Just as the shaver sockets in various hotel bathrooms do.)
... and Apple offers the following for this: Apple World Travel Adapter Kit - Apple
The Apple-supplied charging equipment will accept 100 to 240 volts without a converter, but you may still need a plug adapter.

Neil, thank you; so I need a plug adapter for European plugs.
