Prague – Summer time ends on Sunday morning. At 03:00, the clock will return to 02:00, making the night one hour longer. Central European Standard Time will be in effect until the last Sunday in March next year, which is five months.
People traveling on long-distance public transport on a Sunday night will have an hour longer journey. Time changes will affect the four-night long distance train from Czech Railways. The train will wait at the departure station according to the new time. There is no regional connection during the transition to the new time.
With respect to the fall adjustment of civil time, it is sometimes incorrectly stated that it is a transition to winter time. The actual winter time prevailed in the Czech Republic for the last time from December 1946 to February 1947.
According to the European Commission’s plan, the mandatory time change is supposed to end this year across the European Union. However, member countries have not agreed on a time that will take effect permanently. Last September, the Czech government approved regulations that it said times would change in the next five years.
Summer time was first introduced on Czech soil in 1915 and 1916. This returned during the Second World War in 1940 and lasted until 1949. The Czechs began advancing their clocks for the third time during the energy crisis of the late 1970s. . Until the mid-1990s, summer time lasted for half a year in the Czech Republic. Since 1996, the republic has joined EU customs, and the time shift lasts seven months.
Summer time was originally introduced to save energy, but is now being ignored. Instead, experts point out that negative consequences for human health apply.
