This lion is situated next to the church entrance. Almost every medieval church has an image of a lion.The symbolic meaning of the lion is ambiguous. Lion was associated with Jesus, his royal principle as "the king of the Jews."  He is able to save Christians from the mouth of the "roaring lion", that is, the devil.  Leo is the emblem of the royal dignity of Christ, a tendency to loneliness and contemplation, hermitism and reflection.
