Church of Our Lady of Sorrows, Baroque pilgrimage church in Dobrá Voda u Českých Budějovic, Czech Republic.

The Church of Our Lady of Sorrows is a Baroque religious building with an oval-shaped nave topped by a bell cupola. It was constructed between 1733 and 1735 and displays the architectural characteristics typical of that period.

Pilgrimage began here after 1630, when Archbishop Ernst Adalbert von Harrach had a chapel built at a spring considered miraculous; a church dedicated to the Sorrowful Virgin was consecrated two years later. A visit by Emperor Charles VI and his wife Elisabeth Christine in 1732 prompted the present church, planned by Kilian Ignaz Dientzenhofer from 1733, executed by Anselmo Lurago and completed in 1735. It was consecrated in 1763 by Prague auxiliary bishop Jan Ondřej Kayser.

The pilgrimage began in 1630, when Archbishop Ernst Adalbert von Harrach had a chapel built at a spring considered miraculous after a Marian apparition. The church is still a pilgrimage site dedicated to the Seven Sorrows of Mary, and the village name Dobrá Voda ("good water") comes from that spring.

The church is located near České Budějovice and is accessible to visitors interested in its architectural features. It is advisable to check current opening hours in advance to ensure you can enter.

The location is connected to a nearby spring that was once believed to have healing properties and influenced the village's name. The name Dobrá Voda means good water and reflects this historical connection.
