UTC+0:20 was used in the Netherlands from 1909 to 1940. It was known as Amsterdam Time or Dutch Time.
The exact timezone was in fact GMT +0h 19m 32.13s until March 17, 1937, when it was simplified to GMT +0h 20m. When the Germans occupied the Netherlands in World War II, Berlin Time was adopted, and this has been retained ever since.
