Daylight Saving Time Ends in Denmark

Daylight Saving Time (DST) ends in Denmark on the last Sunday of October. On this day, clocks are turned back one hour at 3:00 AM to 2:00 AM, giving people an extra hour of sleep.

History

The concept of DST was first proposed by George Vernon Hudson in 1895. However, it was not until World War I that countries started adopting DST to save energy for war production by making better use of daylight evening hours. In Denmark, DST has been used intermittently since 1916.

Traditions

There are no specific traditions associated with the end of Daylight Saving Time in Denmark. It is mostly a day of practical adjustment where individuals and businesses set their clocks back and enjoy the additional hour.

Activities

On this day, Danes might:

  • Change all household and personal timekeeping devices.
  • Enjoy the opportunity for extra rest or leisure activities.
  • Prepare for the shorter daylight hours and longer evenings that characterize the winter months.

Danes typically use this time to adapt to the seasonal change as they transition into the darker part of the year.
