Wann Ist Zeitumstellung
In short
The clocks will be turned back one hour on the night of Saturday, 24 October to Sunday, 25 October 2026. This change marks the end of summer time and the start of winter time.
In plain words
In October, we change our clocks to adjust to the shorter days. We move the hands back by one hour, which means we gain an extra hour of sleep that night.
A simple example
At 3:00 am on Sunday morning, you should set your clock back to 2:00 am.
Why it matters
This adjustment helps align daylight with human activity during the colder months. However, it is often debated because it can disrupt sleep patterns and biological rhythms.
Easy to mix up
Do not confuse this with the spring change, where you move the clocks forward and lose an hour.
