We present our results of a local probe study on EuFe$_{2}$(As$_{1-x}$P$_{x}$)$_{2}$ single crystals with $x$=0.13, 0.19 and 0.28 by means of muon spin rotation and ${}^{57}$Fe Mossbauer spectroscopy. We focus our discussion on the sample with $x$=0.19 viz. at the optimal substitution level, where bulk superconductivity ($T_{text{SC}}=28$ K) sets in above static europium order ($T^{text{Eu}}=20$K) but well below the onset of the iron antiferromagnetic (AFM) transition ($sim$100 K). We find enhanced spin dynamics in the Fe sublattice closely above $T_{text{SC}}$ and propose that these are related to enhanced Eu fluctuations due to the evident coupling of both sublattices observed in our experiments.
