When did it become a ruin?[edit]

The entry reports that the church was still intact in 1883. When did it collapse, and why was this allowed to happen? Surely someone who specializes in this topic can provide the answer. This is not a make-wrong, just a request for the rest of the history. (66.162.249.170 (talk) 10:57, 19 February 2011 (UTC))[reply]
