Prayer times in Château-d'Oex — common questions
What time is Fajr in Château-d'Oex today?
Fajr in Château-d'Oex begins at 04:06 AM today. Fajr starts at true dawn, when the sun reaches a set angle below the horizon, and ends at sunrise — so this time shifts by a minute or two each day as the season changes.
Which direction is the Qibla from Château-d'Oex?
From Château-d'Oex, the Qibla is 122.2° from true north — roughly ESE. Remember that a phone compass points to magnetic north, so you may need to correct for local magnetic declination.
Which calculation method is used for Château-d'Oex?
These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across Switzerland. If your mosque follows a different authority, its Fajr and Isha may differ by several minutes — the calculation is identical, only the twilight angle changes.
Are these times accurate for a place the size of Château-d'Oex?
Yes. Prayer times are computed from Château-d'Oex's own coordinates, not borrowed from a larger neighbouring city, so the astronomy is exactly as accurate as it is for a capital. The only caveat is that we use a single reference point for the settlement.
Do prayer times in Château-d'Oex change much between seasons?
Considerably. With a 7.2-hour difference between the longest and shortest day, Fajr and Isha shift substantially across the year in Château-d'Oex, while Dhuhr — tied to solar noon — barely moves. Checking weekly rather than monthly is worthwhile.
