Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night Clock change

The earliest sunset of the year is at 16:19 on 11 December; the latest is 21:17 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 05:13 on 16 June to 08:04 on 1 January.

Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 14m of daylight.

What makes sunsets in Munich different

At 48.1°N the sun cuts through the twilight band at an angle, so darkness takes 31 minutes to arrive: 7 minutes longer than today's 24-minute median.

Photographers get 60 minutes of golden light this evening, roughly 1.5× the 40 minutes available at the equator on the same date.

Between the June and December solstices the length of the day swings by 7h 43m here — among the narrowest of the 101 cities tracked in Germany.

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.

Across September the sunset moves 60 minutes earlier, averaging about 2 minutes a day.

On 25 October 2026 the local clock shifts back an hour and sunset lands at 17:06 instead of 18:08. Worth knowing if you are planning a shoot that week.

Elevation matters at 524 m. The visible horizon drops 0.79°, pushing sunset 4.7 minutes later and sunrise the same amount earlier than a sea-level observer would see.

Planning a sunset photo in Munich

Arrive by 18:07. Golden hour opens at 18:22 and the sun is down by 19:03, 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 19:22 and runs to 19:34, the end of civil twilight and 30m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
