On Monday 2 August 2027, the eclipse is partial in Munich (Germany). The Moon starts to cover the Sun at 10:08 AM, hides 50% of its surface at 11:11:14 AM and leaves it at 12:16 PM. All times are local time (UTC+2). At maximum the Sun stands 50° above the horizon, to the south-east.
A partial eclipse never gets dark, even a deep one: one percent of the Sun is still thousands of times brighter than the full Moon. The corona, the stars and the 360° twilight only appear inside the path of totality. From Munich, the nearest city on our list inside the path is Kairouan, 1,391 km away, where totality lasts 2 min 35 s.
Eclipse glasses stay on from the first second to the last: at no moment in Munich is it safe to look at the Sun with bare eyes.
