The Potemkin Stairs are 192 steps rising about 27 metres, and were built wider at the bottom than the top so that from above you see only landings and from below only steps. Eisenstein filmed the scene that made them famous in 1925.
The clock: Odesa keeps UTC+2. Beneath it run catacombs estimated at around 2,500 kilometres — old limestone quarries, and the largest such network in the world.
Odesa lies at 30.7°E. Its time zone, UTC+2, is built around the 30°E meridian. The two very nearly coincide: solar noon — the moment the sun is highest — falls at about 11:57, which is as close to true solar time as a zone this wide can get. Under daylight saving the clocks move 60 minutes forward, widening the gap to 57 minutes and pushing solar noon to 12:57.
The longest day of 2026 is 22 June, with 15h 49m of daylight. The shortest is 22 December, with 8h 35m. The swing between them is 7h 15m. This is the latitude band where the difference between summer and winter evenings is most obvious.
The earliest sunrise and the latest sunset do not land on the longest day. In Odesa the sun comes up earliest on 17 June at 05:03, while the latest sunset waits until 27 June at 20:54. The equation of time is what separates them: the Earth's elliptical orbit and axial tilt move solar noon back and forth by several minutes over the year.
The sky stays usably light for a while after the sun goes down. In Odesa that civil twilight runs about 30 minutes at the equinox, stretching to 39 minutes at the solstice.
