Take a look at www.skymap.com - the demo version will tell you what you need
to know, or you can spend Euro100 for a PC-based astronomical 'atlas'.
Skymap claims that in Zurich at 2300 local time tonight, Mars should be at
120degrees ESE, barely 10 degrees above the horizon. By midnight it should
have risen to 15 degrees above the horizon.

If I wanted to see Mars tonight, say at 10pm London
time (11pm here), in which direction do I have to look
for it? How high or low above the horizon should Mars
be?
Thanks for a your helpful guidance.
