[HIGHLIGHTS] Turned the clock again: It's summer time in Germany

On March 31st, the time will move forward from two to three in the morning. The aim of the time change, which was reintroduced in 1980, is to make better use of daylight brightness.

In 2018, the EU Commission surveyed citizens across Europe - according to the non-representative survey, an impressive 84 percent were against the change. If winter time was permanent, the sun would rise in Frankfurt am Main this year at 4:15 a.m. on June 21st; if summer time was Permanent, it would only rise at 9:22 a.M. on December 21st.
