Through the portal, decorated with the sculpted coat of arms of Montserrat, you can climb to the main square of the Monastery. This road is called "Rise of Our Lady".
In the niche of the left wall, note the sculpture of St. George, made by the sculptor Josep Subirax in 1986. Subirax depicted the patron saint of Catalonia as a knight with a shield and a sword. Guidebooks say that the knight is looking at you, from whatever angle you approach him. Although it seemed to me that the knight was looking rather inward.
