How Ludwigshafen am Rhein's prayer times are worked out
From Ludwigshafen am Rhein, the Qibla is 127° from true north. Face southeast to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 4,163 km (2,587 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Ludwigshafen am Rhein's own coordinates (49.48°N, 8.45°E), not a national average. That is why Ludwigshafen am Rhein's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.
One local quirk shapes the Ludwigshafen am Rhein timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Ludwigshafen am Rhein lies well west inside its Berlin time zone. So the sun peaks about 35 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 1:25 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 17h 24m near June down to 10h 07m in December.
The Fajr and Isha angles for Ludwigshafen am Rhein come from the Muslim World League. The Muslim World League method sets Fajr when the sun is 18° below the horizon, and Isha at 17°. Use ISNA's 15° instead and Fajr here would move by several minutes. So the method — not the coordinates alone — settles the final time. We also publish times for nearby Mannheim, Speyer and Worms. Each is only a few minutes off Ludwigshafen am Rhein's clock.

Two Asr times are in use in Germany
Germany's largest Muslim community is Turkish-rooted and Hanafi, whose tradition recognises a later Asr — this page shows both times; check your own mosque's timetable. The time shown above for Ludwigshafen am Rhein is the standard reckoning — 4:57 PM. The Hanafi time today is 5:52 PM. Follow whichever your mosque announces; you can make Hanafi the default in the settings above.
Who sets prayer times in Germany
Germany has no single national timetable — several calculation traditions coexist. The largest network is DITIB, the Turkish-Islamic Union, seated at Cologne. It publishes times calculated by Turkey's Diyanet. Those twilight angles (Fajr 18°, Isha 17°) are nominally the same as the Muslim World League method this page uses. The times here therefore sit within a few minutes of DITIB tables for most of the year. They diverge mainly in high summer, when persistent twilight forces German timetables to interpolate Fajr and Isha. Umbrella bodies such as the Zentralrat der Muslime and the Islamrat coordinate alongside DITIB. Germany's roughly 5.5 million Muslims (6.4-6.7% of the population, per the BAMF study) navigate between their conventions. Clocks follow the EU: forward the last Sunday of March, back the last Sunday of October.
Cologne's central mosque and the long summer fast
The Cologne Central Mosque is DITIB's flagship, inaugurated in 2018 with twin 55-metre minarets and a glass-and-concrete dome. It is among Germany's largest and most debated buildings. Berlin's Şehitlik Mosque was built between 1999 and 2005 in Ottoman Revival style, on the historic Turkish cemetery at Columbiadamm. Germany's latitude makes Ramadan demanding when it falls in summer. Fasts run seventeen to eighteen hours — among Europe's longest — and Isha comes close to midnight in June. Turkish-rooted communities dominate here, so the Hanafi Asr matters. This page shows both the standard and the later Hanafi time.

Ludwigshafen am Rhein Prayer Times — FAQ
What direction is Qibla from Ludwigshafen am Rhein?
The Qibla direction from Ludwigshafen am Rhein, Germany is 127° from true north. Face southeast toward Mecca, Saudi Arabia, which lies 4,163 km (2,587 miles) away.
How long is the fast in Ludwigshafen am Rhein?
The longest daily fast in Ludwigshafen am Rhein is about 17h 24m, around June. The shortest is about 10h 07m, in December. That is a swing of 7h 17m across the year, set by the city's latitude of 49.48°N. Both are measured from Fajr to Maghrib with the Muslim World League method.
Do these times match my DITIB mosque's timetable?
Closely, most of the year. DITIB publishes Diyanet-calculated times whose angles (Fajr 18°, Isha 17°) match the Muslim World League method used here. But the official tables add small precaution margins. They also interpolate summer Fajr and Isha, because at German latitudes real twilight never ends. Treat your mosque's printed timetable as final, especially for beginning and breaking the fast.
