which way do clocks go in october

In October, clocks go back one hour. This means that on the last Sunday of October, at 2:00 or 3:00 AM depending on the region, clocks are turned backward by one hour to standard time. This is often called "falling back" and marks the end of daylight saving time. For example, in 2025 in many European countries like Germany, clocks will be set back one hour on October 26, 2025, at 3:00 AM to 2:00 AM. This results in more daylight in the morning and less in the evening. Similarly, in the UK, clocks will go back at 2:00 AM on October 26, 2025.
