About the time in Schänis
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.
Schänis 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 08:26 local time, giving 13h 58m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (47.17, 9.07) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Schänis.
