  The church of the hospital, built nearby, at the intersection of the roads leading to the hospital and to Poiana cu Cetate, respectively, was built between September 8, 1937 and September 23, 1939. Its architecture is similar to that of the Church "Saint Nicholas the Prince" in Iasi, and the patron saint, the "Healing Spring," was chosen to symbolize the purpose of this place of worship here. The church was built especially for the hospital in Bârnova by the nun Magdalena Savin. We know about this mother that she was married, but towards the end of her life, she decided, together with her husband, to become a monk. From their fortune they built the church from the Bârnova hospital, on a land bought from the General Epitropy of the Hospital House "Sfântul Spiridon" from Iaşi. In the act of sale-purchase of this land from Bârnova, it is mentioned that the purpose of this sale is precisely the construction of a church for the patients from the then TB Sanatorium, from Bârnova. The deed also mentions that Mary Savin, the nun Magdalene, undertook to build a church on this land in just three years. We also find from the documents of the time that, initially, the church belonged to a hermitage, and the buildings behind it, where today are the service houses of the medical staff, were then simple cells. In time, the hermitage ceased to exist, and the church remained the Bârnova TB Hospital.
