About the time in Centre
Centre follows the civil time used across its region of France; there is no separate local reckoning inside the city.
Sunrise today lands at 06:53 and sunset at 08:55 local time, giving 14h 02m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (48.89, 2.20) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Centre.
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.
