Present Time
At present, in the region of Prievidza, there is a developed mining industry of lignite and brown coal which influences the environment in the area. Unfortunately, the chapel was situated in one of the undermined parts of the village and was endangered. That is why the representatives of the regional restoration atelier of the Monumental institute in Banská Bystrica decided to save this historical building. A unique transport in the Slovak history was planned and the 400 tonne heavy chapel was transported using wheeled transporter borrowed from Germany on December 6, 2000. It is now situated in another part of Kos which is not undermined.

“Without music to decorate it, time is just a bunch of boring production deadlines or dates by which bills must be paid.”
