Longest and shortest day in Vienna
The longest day falls on 21 June 2026, 3 months ago, with 16h 4m of daylight.
The shortest is 21 December 2026, in 3 months, with 8h 20m.
Between them the day length swings by 7h 44m.
Daylight through 2026
The earliest sunset of the year is at 16:00 on 11 December; the latest is 20:59 on 26 June. Those dates are not the solstices — the difference between clock time and solar time shifts them by a week or more.
Sunrise ranges from 04:53 on 16 June to 07:45 on 1 January.
Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 14m of daylight.
What makes sunsets in Vienna different
From sunset to full civil darkness is 31 minutes here, against a 24-minute median elsewhere today. Latitude 48.2°N accounts for the 7-minute difference.
Photographers get 60 minutes of golden light this evening, roughly 1.5× the 40 minutes available at the equator on the same date.
Between solstices the sunset walks 73° across the horizon — SW in midwinter, NW in midsummer — which is why a fixed viewpoint works only part of the year. Today's bearing is W.
Sunset drifts 2 minutes earlier each day this month — 60 minutes from the first of September to the last.
The clocks go back on 25 October 2026, so the sunset jumps from 17:49 to 16:47 overnight — the sun has not moved, the clock has.
Planning a sunset photo in Vienna
Arrive by 17:48. Golden hour opens at 18:03 and the sun is down by 18:44, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.
Face west — the sun goes down at 269° on the compass today. That bearing moves through the year, so a composition that works this week may not in three months.
Do not pack up at sunset. Blue hour follows from 19:03 and runs to 19:15, the end of civil twilight and 31m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
