That's very sad. At least have the pictures, now.

When you write "destroyed by lightening", do you mean that the
lightning started a fire?

Yes

Are their ruins standing, and are they
likely to be kept, demolished or rebuilt?

Ruins seems standing. The altarpieces were destroyed https://twitter.com/Costa_da_Morte/status/415923293279891456 The president of the region says it is going to be rebuilt, but you know... that is always said when a disaster happens.

In any case, a picture of
them in their current state would be a good documentary record.

I'm going to put a message in Galician Wikipedia, in the case someone can take photos.
