Day: In Monaco, Daylight Saving Time (DST) typically begins at 2:00 AM on the last Sunday of March. Clocks are set forward by one hour to 3:00 AM, allowing for more daylight in the evenings.
History: DST was first conceived by Benjamin Franklin in 1784 and has been used in various forms since then. It became widely adopted during World War I and II as a way to conserve energy. Monaco, along with many European countries, follows the EU directive on DST.
Traditions: There are no specific traditions associated with the start of DST in Monaco. It is primarily a practical change.
Activities: As DST starts early on a Sunday morning when most people are sleeping, there's little immediate change in daily activity. People typically enjoy the extra hour of daylight by spending more time outdoors in the evenings. They may also take this opportunity to check and replace batteries in smoke detectors and ensure their timekeeping devices are updated.
