About the time in Alten
Around 244 people live in Alten, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
Alten runs on Europe/Zurich, which puts the city UTC +2 from Coordinated Universal Time right now. The clock at the top of this page is not copied from your device: it is anchored to our reference timestamp and re-rendered every second against the IANA time zone database, so it stays right even when a laptop or phone has quietly drifted.
Sunrise today lands at 06:28 and sunset at 08:28 local time, giving 14h 00m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (47.60, 8.64) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Alten.
