Current Time in Nizhny Novgorod, Russia

How Nizhny Novgorod Keeps Time

Nizhny Novgorod keeps MSK, UTC+3. The live clock normally synchronizes to the site time source and then applies the IANA rules for Nizhny Novgorod; until synchronization succeeds, it uses the device clock as a fallback. Daylight-saving changes are applied only where that zone actually observes them.

Nizhny Novgorod runs on the Europe/Moscow zone in the IANA time zone database, which is UTC+3 right now. There is no daylight saving here, so that offset holds all year and the difference to other places only changes when they move their own clocks.

The sun rises in Nizhny Novgorod at 6:55 am today and sets at 4:41 pm — 9 hours 46 minutes of daylight, with solar noon at 11:48 am. Those times come from the city’s coordinates (56.33, 44.00), so they shift a little every day of the year.

On the two solstices, Nizhny Novgorod has about 17 hours 42 minutes of daylight in June and 6 hours 52 minutes in December. The difference is about 10 hours 50 minutes, which shows how strongly the local daylight cycle changes through the year.

MSK is one of several zones in Russia, so a time quoted for the country as a whole is not necessarily the time here. Check the city rather than the country when it matters.
