I just checked
I have the setting
,----
| org-time-stamp-custom-formats is a variable defined in ‘org.el’.
| Its value is (" %d.%m.%Y " . " %d.%m.%Y %a %H:%M ")
`----
But this as I understand only effect via
‘org-display-custom-times’ the representation.
It does not help me to recognise 28.04.2020 as a European date.
