Padua's Orto Botanico was founded in 1545 to grow medicinal plants and is the oldest academic botanical garden still in its original location. Galileo taught at the university here for eighteen years, which he later called the happiest of his life.
The clock: Padua keeps UTC+1. Its astronomical clock in Piazza dei Signori was first built in 1344, rebuilt in the 1420s–30s, and famously omits Libra — the reason is disputed.
Padua lies at 11.9°E. Its time zone, UTC+1, is built around the 15°E meridian. The 3.1° gap between them means the clock runs roughly 12 minutes ahead of the sun: solar noon arrives at about 12:12 rather than 12:00. Under daylight saving the clocks move 60 minutes forward, widening the gap to 72 minutes and pushing solar noon to 13:12.
The longest day of 2026 is 22 June, with 15h 41m of daylight. The shortest is 22 December, with 8h 43m. The swing between them is 6h 58m. 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 Padua the sun comes up earliest on 16 June at 05:23, while the latest sunset waits until 28 June at 21:05. 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 Padua that civil twilight runs about 29 minutes at the equinox, stretching to 38 minutes at the solstice.
Every figure in this section is computed from the city's own latitude, longitude and IANA time zone using NOAA solar algorithms (Spencer, 1971), accurate to about ±2 arcminutes below 65° latitude.
