The Sivas Congress of September 1919 brought delegates from across Anatolia together and set the framework for the Turkish national movement. The building it met in, a former school, is now a museum.
The clock: Sivas keeps UTC+3 at about 1,280 metres on the central plateau, where winters are long and the railway junction made the city strategically important.
Sivas lies at 37.0°E. Its time zone, UTC+3, is built around the 45°E meridian. The 8.0° gap between them means the clock runs roughly 32 minutes ahead of the sun: solar noon arrives at about 12:32 rather than 12:00. The zone holds UTC+3 all year — there is no daylight saving here.
The longest day of 2026 is 22 June, with 14h 59m of daylight. The shortest is 22 December, with 9h 21m. The swing between them is 5h 38m. 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 Sivas the sun comes up earliest on 15 June at 05:03, while the latest sunset waits until 29 June at 20:04. 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 Sivas that civil twilight runs about 27 minutes at the equinox, stretching to 33 minutes at the solstice.
