據現在主持募修的(de)(de)五里源信徒郝小具說，此寺(si)(si)在日偽(wei)時期被(bei)徹底拆除(chu)，用(yong)于(yu)修建本村炮樓(lou)和碉堡(bao)。上(shang)世紀六十年代(dai)初，國家加強基層(ceng)醫療衛(wei)生機構建設，五里源公社在原崇(chong)明寺(si)(si)的(de)(de)廢址上(shang)興建了公社衛(wei)生院(yuan)，原來寺(si)(si)院(yuan)的(de)(de)碑(bei)刻也散落各處(chu)。十一屆三中全會后，宗(zong)教政策得到落實，當地善(shan)男信女開(kai)始籌劃(hua)重建崇(chong)明寺(si)(si)。九十年代(dai)后期，信眾集資購買了鄉衛(wei)生院(yuan)后院(yuan)作為安神之所(suo)，原碑(bei)刻文物也逐漸被(bei)找回，其中就(jiu)有著名的(de)(de)唐(tang)代(dai)佛頂尊勝陀羅(luo)尼經幢和北宋魯遷之詩碣。
