Winter hour

[Jonas Wauters]

This might be a stupid question but still.
I live in the Timezone GMT+1 and at 27-10 3hour went in to 2 sow went 1 hour back.
Now I ask myself doesn't that happens everywhere in the same timezone at the same moment?
And how do I change the setting here at CH???
I found it once but I can't manage to find it once again.

Thanks in advance
Jonas

As for your time zone, yes.

All countries in Europe except Iceland observe DST and change on the same date and time, starting on the last Sunday in March and ending on the last Sunday in October. Before 1996, DST ended on the last Sunday in September in most European countries; on the British Isles though, DST then ended on the fourth (which some years isn't the last) Sunday in October. In the West European (UTC), Central European (CET, UTC+1), and East European (UTC+2) time zones the change is simultaneous: on both dates the clocks are changed everywhere at 01:00 UTC, i.e. from local times of 01:00/02:00/03:00 to 02:00/03:00/04:00 in March, and vice versa in October.

In the above article, you will see, that number of countries around the world don't observe Daylight Saving Time.
