Top right part of doorway. This section depicts the Last Judgement and was rather gruesome looking. Jesus is in the center with Mary and John the Divine sitting beside him (usually depicted kneeling). On the far left and right are angels kneeling and holding the instruments of Christ's Passion. Below Jesus is St. Michael. The people on his right are entering heaven and all the images going off to that direction are symbolic of heaven and peace. The people to Michael's left, however, are being dragged to hell. There are depictions of demons carrying people off and people looking anguished. If you look closely at the people on Michael's left, you'll see that there was royalty depicted as well. This was a statement that even royalty are not immune to the Last Judgement.
