The heaviest building ever moved on wheels
Between September 30 and October 27, 1975, the church was moved a distance of 841.1 meters at a velocity of 13 centimeters per minute to the vicinity of the old hospital, and it was set on an iron-concrete two-storied foundation. A small church of St. Ghost was also moved during October. After the move was completed, restoration work went on until 1988, and the church was solemnly blessed again in 1993.
