The damages have been repaired. Due to fractures in the wall, it is necessary to consolidate the building statically.
The church was renovated immediately after destruction due to funds donated by Serbs in the Diaspora.
The church was repeatedly broken into, plundered and desecrated after the arrival of the UN Mission in Kosovo and Metohija in june 1999. Due to its poor condition, the renovation was begun in 2013.
