Torgau is located 111 km south of Berlin, so Dhuhr in Torgau is called about 2 minutes later than in Berlin. The gap is due to longitude: each degree moves solar noon by about four minutes, and that is why the timetable of the capital should not be used in Torgau.
Qibla direction in Torgau
From Torgau you pray towards the south-east, at an angle of 135.2° from true north; the Kaaba is 4,073 km away.
