Most of the present Basler Münster is Gothic but arguably the most impressive single feature of the Basel Minster is the highly decorative Romanesque St Gallen portal (Galluspforte). On the tympanum, dating from around 1180, is a relief of Christ sitting in judgment. The Galluspforte also has reliefs of the wise and foolish virgins from the parable described in the New Testament
