Mater Dolorosa (Berlin-Lankwitz)

Mater Dolorosa is a Roman Catholic parish and church in Berlin-Lankwitz in Germany.

The parish church is located between single and multi-family houses in the western part of the district of Lankwitz, about a kilometre south-east of the regional and suburban railway station Lichterfelde.

The consecration of the church designed as a basilica by the architects Christoph Hehl (1847–1911) and his scholar and companion Carl Kühn (1873–1942) took place on 22 September 1912 by the Auxiliary Bishop of Breslau Karl Augustin (1847–1919).

The new bronze bells of 1963 dedicated to Maria Magdalena, Mater Dolorosa and John the Apostle are tuned in the beginning notes of the Gregorian Te Deum e - g - a.

The German theologian and honorary professor at the Free University of Berlin Dr. Johannes Pinsk (born 4 February 1891, † 21 May 1957, ordained priest on 13 June 1915) was leading the parish from 1939 to 1954.
