Solar Eclipse 2026 in Muret, France
Partial August 12, 2026
On August 12, 2026, Muret will experience a partial solar eclipse with 98.01% of the sun's disc obscured. Maximum eclipse occurs at 20:26 local time, with the sun 6° above the horizon toward the WNW. While totality won't be reached here, the partial eclipse will be clearly visible with certified eclipse glasses. At only 6° elevation, an obstacle taller than 105 m within 1 km blocks the eclipsed sun in that direction — use Heliora's 3D sky simulation to check whether mountains, hills, or buildings obstruct the view from your exact spot. All times computed from a precision astronomical engine.
