Kingisepp prayer times overview
The Kingisepp prayer schedule is calculated based on the city's local data, so it may differ from neighbouring localities even within the same time zone.
Local time in Kingisepp is Same as Moscow time (MSK). For this reason, Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha are calculated based on this city's data specifically, not the country's average time.
For Kingisepp the coordinates 59.3763°N and 28.6141°E are used. Latitude determines the seasonal length of the day, while longitude determines solar noon and the shift of the Dhuhr time. This latitude is close to the white nights zone, so in summer the interval between Maghrib and Fajr may shrink considerably.
Kingisepp prayer times should be compared with another city carefully: a small difference in coordinates can change the start of a prayer by several minutes. During the period of bright nights, it is especially important to monitor the Fajr and Isha times carefully.
According to today's schedule for Kingisepp, the sun rises at 06:56, while the Maghrib time begins at 18:57. 12 часов 1 minute passes between these events. This is a moderate day length without sharp seasonal deviations.
In Kingisepp the period from Maghrib (18:57) to Fajr (04:53) lasts 9 часов 56 минут. This is a convenient night length for Isha, performing Witr and preparing for Fajr.
In autumn in Kingisepp the period of bright nights recedes, while the night interval between Maghrib and Fajr gradually lengthens.
The summer light regime in Kingisepp differs from southern cities: the night shortens, and this directly affects the night and morning prayer times.
If you plan your day around the Kingisepp prayer schedule, pay attention first of all to Fajr, Maghrib and Isha. Fajr in 04:53 helps to define the morning reference, Maghrib in 18:57 the time of the evening prayer and iftar, and Isha in 20:51 the start of the night prayer.

Questions about prayer times in Kingisepp
The prayer schedule directly depends on three factors: geographic latitude, longitude and the time zone. The sun rises and sets at its own time at every point on the globe, so the moments of Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha inevitably differ even between closely located localities. The greater the difference in latitude, the more noticeable the difference in the morning and evening prayer times. This is precisely why the schedule is drawn up to match the coordinates of each city.
We update the schedule in Kingisepp daily. The sun does not rise at the same time from day to day: the daylight length gradually increases from winter to summer and shortens from summer to winter. For this reason the Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha times shift slightly every day. The most noticeable changes occur in spring and autumn, so a daily check with the schedule is the best practice.
Of course. To end suhur, use the Fajr time (04:53) as a reference — the pre-dawn meal must be completed before it begins. The start of iftar coincides with the Maghrib time (18:57): the fast can be broken as soon as the sun sets below the horizon. Since prayer times shift daily during Ramadan, we recommend checking the schedule daily so as not to be off even by a minute.
Because Kingisepp is located far from the equator, white nights or conditions close to them are observed here in summer, and a very short day in winter. Under such a position of the sun, the classical calculation of Fajr and Isha no longer gives a correct result: twilight may last all night. So that believers can perform the prayer with confidence, the high-latitude adjustment method recommended by Islamic calculation centres is applied.
