The April 8 solar eclipse will be mainly visible from North America. But the most passionate will be able to follow it on dedicated sites in France.

In Europe, the phenomenon will only be partial, and above all, not visible from mainland France. An exceptionally long duration, the eclipse will last 4 minutes and 34 seconds. The Paris Observatory describes it as simply “exceptional”, particularly because of its duration. It is expected to begin at 10:55 a.m. local time. The disappearance of the sun will reach its maximum at 8:17 p.m., Paris time.
