The partial solar eclipse 2025: Are you already equipped?

On 29 March 2025 the Moon slides in front of the sun. A partial Solar Eclipse is coming and you can witness it live.
In large parts of Europe – depending on your location – you will experience a coverage of the Solar disk (in Central Europe) of up to 25%.
Even though the Moon covers only a small part of the Sun, the event is fascinating. Don’t miss it!

When and where can you observe the eclipse?

The celestial show begins at 11:20 CET and reaches its maximum at 12:10 CET. The final phase ends at 13:00 CET. The further North you are located, the more spectacular this event will be: While up to 25% of the Sun will be covered in Sylt, in Hamburg you can observe 20% and in Munich about 10% of the obscuration.
