Day: Daylight Saving Time (DST) typically ends on the last Sunday of October in Norway, as in most European countries. People set their clocks back one hour at 3:00 am to 2:00 am, effectively moving an hour of daylight from the evening to the morning.
History: Norway has observed DST since 1916, albeit with some interruptions. The practice was widely adopted during World War I and II to conserve energy. The current schedule for DST in Norway (and the EU) has been standardized since 1996.
Traditions: There are no specific traditions associated with the end of Daylight Saving Time in Norway. However, it is commonly seen as a time to enjoy an extra hour of sleep on the night when clocks are changed.
Activities: As there are no particular customs or public celebrations linked to this day, Norwegians typically use it as an opportunity to adjust their schedules and routines for the winter season ahead. People may also take advantage of this time to check and replace batteries in smoke detectors and other safety devices, a practical habit encouraged by fire safety officials.
