Good to know about the time in Marseille

Marseille keeps the legal time of all of mainland France. A little further east than Paris, it sees the sun reach its highest point around 12:38 in winter and 13:38 in summer (mean solar noon), about twelve minutes earlier than in the capital.

Its latitude gives it longer winter days: at the December solstice, the day lasts about three quarters of an hour longer than in Paris. The reverse is true in June, when evenings in Paris last longer. Daylight saving time dates
