Central medallion of the west rose, depicting Christ in Judgment displaying his five wounds. It needs a good cleaning. Dating from 1200-50, the west rose window depicts the Last Judgment. In the center is Christ, displaying his five wounds, surrounded by the Four Evangelists and angels. The Twelve Apostles are on the left and right, while above and below are scenes of the resurrection, weighing of souls, heaven and hell.
