About the time in Berlin
Sunrise today lands at 05:58 and sunset at 08:21 local time, giving 14h 23m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (52.52, 13.41) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Berlin.
Berlin runs on Europe/Berlin, 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.
Berlin sits at latitude 52.52, in the temperate-north band, so day length here swings sharply between midwinter and midsummer — today's 14h 23m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
