Current Time in Stuttgart, Germany

How Stuttgart Keeps Time

Stuttgart keeps CEST, UTC+2. The live clock normally synchronizes to the site time source and then applies the IANA rules for Stuttgart; until synchronization succeeds, it uses the device clock as a fallback. Daylight-saving changes are applied only where that zone actually observes them.

Stuttgart runs on the Europe/Berlin zone in the IANA time zone database, which is UTC+2 right now. The clocks change twice a year here: UTC+1 on standard time and UTC+2 while daylight saving is in force. The next change is on 25 October 2026, when clocks go back one hour.

The sun rises in Stuttgart at 7:57 am today and sets at 6:17 pm — 10 hours 20 minutes of daylight, with solar noon at 1:07 pm. Those times come from the city’s coordinates (48.78, 9.18), so they shift a little every day of the year.

On the two solstices, Stuttgart has about 16 hours 10 minutes of daylight in June and 8 hours 15 minutes in December. The difference is about 7 hours 55 minutes, which shows how strongly the local daylight cycle changes through the year.

At the current civil offset, Stuttgart’s longitude corresponds to a difference of about 1 hour 23 minutes between zone time and longitude-based mean solar time. Today’s calculated solar noon is 1:07 pm rather than 12:00 on the clock.
