Alexanderplatz, the central square of Berlin, was named in 1805 in honor of Russian Emperor Alexander I as a symbol of friendship between Russia and Prussia (as the leading German state was called at that time). The so-called "World Clock" (at the forefront in the photo) is one of the few emplematic structures of the GDR-epoch that has not been torn down following Germany's reunification.
Александерплатц, главная площадь современного Берлина, была названа в 1805 году в честь российского императора Александра I как символ дружбы между Россией и Пруссией (как тогда именовалось германское государство). Достопримечательностью площади являются так-называемые "международные часы" (на фото на переднем плане), одно из немногих знаковых сооружений эпохи ГДР, которое не было разрушено после воссоединения Германии.
The explanation says that there is true solar time: at 12 noon the sun will be highest in the sky. Local time takes South pole as centre of the world map; 15 degrees east is + 1 hour, 15 degrees west is - 1 hour. Since 1700 there the Gregorial calender became a rule. But there is sidereal time too, based on the rotation of the earth in relation to the stars and that sedereal day and night is 3 min. and 56.555 sec shorter than our day and night. To make time even more complicated the firmament and the celestial pole migration also seem to have influence; so time can be confusing. This clock has it all and I know that I'm too late when the train leaves without me.

Late afternoon at the Alexanderplatz. The setting sun is reflected in the numbers of the famous Urania-Weltzeituhr.
Have a lovely weekend, y'all!

3 nights later, I could see wave detail in clouds very high in the sky. This could only be ash/smoke from the volcano. It looks way too high to be from a local brush fire. Contrast enhanced to show cloud detail.
According to www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/astronomy.html?n=770&m..., this was taken almost right at sunset, but I don't buy it.
