Sunrise today lands at 06:37 and sunset at 08:31 local time, giving 13h 53m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (46.80, 7.16) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Fribourg.
Around 38,197 people live in Fribourg, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
The zone identifier Europe/Zurich is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but Europe/Zurich keeps pointing at Zurich time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
