In 1987, the old city of Petrolândia, in the Sertão de Pernambuco, was flooded for the construction of the Luiz Gonzaga Hydroelectric Plant. After the flood, only the top of the Church of the Sacred Heart of Jesus was visible. During the drought season, Lake Itaparica partly dries out and some of the temple's structure can be seen.
