That ECB link gives the latest rates. They also have one that give the last 90 days of rates [1].
There is a more general system for accessing ECB data that includes a vast amount beyond exchange rates, described here [2]. I think that lets you get anything they have in their statistical data warehouse. (If you don't need to get it programmatically, they have a web GUI [3]).
The general system is also vastly more complex to use. I was quite happy when I found that 90 day link and did not have to deal with figuring out how to get what I wanted out of the general system.
