Pick the month before the day
Plan around the season: Berlin's sampled golden window stretches to 1 hr 30 min in December and compresses to 1 hr 6 min by March. Check the bearing column before trusting a remembered spot: sunset lands at 231° SW in December but 312° NW in June, a 81° shift. Between December and June the day itself stretches from 7 hr 42 min to 16 hr 48 min, dragging every window with it.

Find the months when sunset faces your spot
Pick the direction your subject faces the sky. Months whose sunset lands within ±10° light up in the table above. Disabled shortcuts have no matching row in this visible mid-month sample.
Each row samples the 15th of the month at these coordinates, so dates near a month boundary can differ from the printed row — around here day length moves up to ~4 min per day in the fastest season. Clock times follow Europe · Berlin, including any daylight-saving change.

The moon over Berlin is a Full Moon, 99% lit. Treat this as lighting context, not a visibility forecast.
Use them only as map-search leads; they are not ranked recommendations. We have not verified current access, closures, permits, safety, or an unobstructed view. 251° WSW is the selected-date mathematical sunset bearing; if another composition faces elsewhere, use the bearing planner in the month table above to locate better-matched sampled months. The number is a planning aid and does not prove visibility.
In Berlin, the evening golden hour window runs 1 hr 11 min on the selected date and approaches from 251° WSW. Arrive 15 minutes before its start when that window occurs, then choose a position with an open view toward that bearing. Don't rely on the generic “one hour before sunset” rule here — the real window shifts with the season, so check the computed times for your date.
See the calculation method and limits before relying on the estimate in terrain-sensitive or safety-critical conditions.
