Good to know about the time in Amiens

Amiens keeps the legal time of all of mainland France, and has almost the same solar noon as Paris: around 12:51 in winter and 13:51 in summer (mean solar noon).

Jules Verne lived there from 1871 until his death in 1905. Around the World in Eighty Days turns on a question of time zones: Phileas Fogg, travelling east, believes he has lost his wager by one day, when in fact, by heading towards the sun, he has seen one more sunrise than the people of London and so gained a day.
