Freising - Crypt

Freising - Crypt
Try without flashlight..

One of the beasts has a human in his mouth. The man on the rigt side seems to reopen the jaw with his hands. The beasts btw. have three jaws! There are four of these beasts on the pillar. Men (knights?) fighting them.

What it all means is very much disputed. The woman with the flower on the eastern side - could be "the church", the knights fighting with beastly paganism. I could not find anything about, what the poor dog could stand for...
