About the time in Castres
The zone identifier Europe/Paris is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but Europe/Paris keeps pointing at Paris time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
Castres sits at latitude 43.61, in the mid-latitude band, so day length here swings noticeably between midwinter and midsummer — today's 13h 42m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 07:03 and sunset at 08:45 local time, giving 13h 42m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (43.61, 2.24) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Castres.
