Βuildings are often vulnerable to the action of natural factors. Soil consistency and factors that may not have been included in planning, along with construction materials can cause sinking, displacement or tilting of building foundations leading, sometimes, to vertical deviation. Commonly, this can cause the collapse of the buildings. 
These buildings can rarely withstand the laws of nature, and when they do so, they gain the human respect and admiration. 

The case of Agia Paraskevi church in Palaioseli village in the region of Konitsa (perfecture of Ioannina) is studied in this paper. The introduction includes a description of the geographic region and a throwback to the construction history of the church. An analysis of the pathology of the monument leads to a complete study of its restoration and enhancement. Previous studies and local characteristics are both taken into account, helping to suggest structural and static ways of treatment. Moreover, actions in the direction of tourism development, with references to buildings with similar structural problems from all around the world, are proposed.
