Daylight Saving Time Ends in Monaco

Day: In Monaco, Daylight Saving Time (DST) typically ends on the last Sunday of October, when clocks are set back one hour at 3:00 AM to 2:00 AM local time. This marks the return to Central European Standard Time (CET) from Central European Summer Time (CEST).

History:

  • DST was first introduced during World War I to save energy by extending daylight hours in the evening.
  • The practice was adopted sporadically over the years, with many countries standardizing their dates of change following the 1970s energy crisis.
  • Monaco, as part of Europe, follows the European Union's directive on DST.

Traditions and Activities:

  • While there are no specific traditions associated with the end of DST in Monaco, residents and businesses adjust their schedules accordingly.
  • Many people take advantage of the "extra" hour of sleep gained on this night.
  • It is also a common reminder for locals to check and replace batteries in smoke detectors and other safety devices.

What People Do:

  • Residents reset their clocks before going to bed on Saturday evening or upon waking up on Sunday morning.
  • As it marks the approach of winter, individuals may begin preparing for colder weather by adjusting thermostats and retrieving winter clothing.
  • Some may use this time as an opportunity for a leisurely morning or to engage in activities they feel they have more time for due to the clock change.
