Solar eclipse 2026 – a major astronomical event across Europe
For the first time since 1999, a total solar eclipse will occur in Central Europe in 2026. It will take place in the evening hours of 12 August. It will reach inhabited areas in the afternoon in western Iceland. The black sun will be visible for just under a minute above the capital Reykjavík, shortly afterwards the legendary Snæfellsjökull volcano will appear in the twilight. The route continues across the Atlantic, then reaches land again in northern Spain in the late afternoon. The umbra crosses Spain in around four minutes and the cities of Bilbao, Valladolid, Valencia and Palma de Mallorca will be in the central zone. In many other countries in Europe, the partial solar eclipse, with over 80% of the sun covered by the moon, will be an absolutely impressive experience. Another total solar eclipse is already scheduled for Spain in 2027. And in 2028, solar observers in Europe can look forward to an annular solar eclipse.
The sun – always worth a look!
Even when there is no solar eclipse, you can safely observe the sun with Omegon Solar Safe eclipse glasses. With a little luck, you may also see larger sunspots or birds or aeroplanes flying past the sun. In general, you can also spot rare transits of planets such as Mercury.
