  • The Glaubenskirche in Berlin-Tempelhof was built from 1914-1915 to a design by Ferdinand Köhler and Paul Kranz. Sauer built a large organ in the church in 1915. On August 29, 1915, the church and organ were dedicated. The organ had a Fernwerk in the attic of the church.
  • In 1944-1945, the church building suffered significant war damage, but the church could be restored. The organ was repaired in 1955. The Fernwerk was lost and has not been rebuilt. When the church interior was renovated in 1959-1960, the organ was subsequently rebuilt in 1960 by Walcker. In 1975 Arndt Stephan made some repairs. Alexander Schuke restored the organ in 1991.
