Questions People Ask

Will the displayed sunrise time jump when Madrid changes its clocks?

Yes on the civil clock. The solar event changes continuously, while the printed clock label moves when the time zone changes offset.

Can I use one sunrise time for all of Spain?

No. The country spans multiple civil time zones and the solar event also changes with coordinates, so use the city page for the place you are in.
