Rosary Basilica (Berlin)
The Rosary Basilica (German: Rosenkranz-Basilika) is a Catholic church in Berlin-Steglitz. Designed by Christoph Hehl, professor of medieval architecture, the Neo-Romanesque-style building was completed in 1900. After surviving World War II without any damages, the church was appointed Minor Basilica by Pope Pius XII. The ornate murals inside the church were begun by Friedrich Stummel and, after his death, completed by his former students.

У наступні десятиліття відбулися глибокі зміни в житловій та демографічній структурі міста. З 1 жовтня 2010 року базиліка Розарію є парафіяльною церквою нової парафії Марії Розенкранцкенигін, яка також включає колишню парафію Далема зі святим Бернгардом як дочірню церкву і налічує близько 8 000 парафіян.
