Longest and shortest day in Berlin
The longest day falls on 21 June 2026, 4 months ago, with 16h 50m of daylight.
The shortest is 21 December 2026, in 2 months, with 7h 38m.
Between them the day length swings by 9h 11m.
Daylight through 2026
The earliest sunset of the year is at 15:51 on 13 December; the latest is 21:33 on 25 June. Those dates are not the solstices — the difference between clock time and solar time shifts them by a week or more.
Sunrise ranges from 04:42 on 17 June to 08:17 on 30 December.
Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 16m of daylight.
What makes sunsets in Berlin different
Light lingers for 34 minutes after sunset before civil twilight ends — 10 minutes longer than the 24-minute median across tracked cities, which is what 52.5°N buys you.
Evening golden hour runs 67 minutes today. On the equator the same window lasts about 40 — at 52.5° the sun approaches the horizon at a shallower angle and takes its time.
Between the June and December solstices the length of the day swings by 9h 11m here — among the widest of the 101 cities tracked in Germany.
Between solstices the sunset walks 82° across the horizon — SW in midwinter, NW in midsummer — which is why a fixed viewpoint works only part of the year. Today's bearing is W.
Across October the sunset moves 125 minutes earlier, averaging about 4 minutes a day.
The clocks go back on 25 October 2026, so the sunset jumps from 17:52 to 16:50 overnight — the sun has not moved, the clock has.
Planning a sunset photo in Berlin
Arrive by 17:21. Golden hour opens at 17:36 and the sun is down by 18:23, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.
Face west — the sun goes down at 260° on the compass today. That bearing moves through the year, so a composition that works this week may not in three months.
Do not pack up at sunset. Blue hour follows from 18:44 and runs to 18:57, the end of civil twilight and 34m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
