Did You Know?
Diocletian's Palace was completed around AD 305 as a retirement residence, and people never stopped living in it. Residents still occupy apartments built into its walls, which makes it a rare Roman palace that is still an inhabited neighbourhood.
The clock: Split keeps UTC+1. Its palace clock tower has a face with 24 hours rather than 12 — a medieval Italian convention that survived the modernisation of everything around it.
Split lies at 16.4°E. Its time zone, UTC+1, is built around the 15°E meridian. The 1.4° gap between them means the clock runs roughly 6 minutes behind the sun: solar noon arrives at about 11:54 rather than 12:00. Under daylight saving the clocks move 60 minutes forward, widening the gap to 54 minutes and pushing solar noon to 12:54.
The longest day of 2026 is 22 June, with 15h 26m of daylight. The shortest is 22 December, with 8h 57m. The swing between them is 6h 29m. 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 Split the sun comes up earliest on 16 June at 05:12, while the latest sunset waits until 28 June at 20:39. 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 Split that civil twilight runs about 29 minutes at the equinox, stretching to 36 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.
