Portico
The wall around the entrance has three niches with scanty traces of frescoes, dating from the middle of the 13th century. The single entrance has a large 13th century molded marble doorcase, on the lintel of which is carved an eagle holding a rabbit. The molding includes a strip of Cosmatesque inlay. Flanking the door is a pair of marble stops in the form of lions with their lunches.
