Biting creatures carved in stone on the tribune, detail, in the Eglise Saint-Michel, in the Abbaye Saint Michel de Cuxa, a 9th century Benedictine abbey in Codalet, Pyrenees-Orientales, France. The tribune originally formed a raised choir in the eastern part of the church, but now surrounds the north gate. The abbey complex consists of the Eglise Saint-Michel, Chapelle de la Trinite, crypt, cloister and an 11th century bell tower. The abbey is listed as a historic monument. Picture by Manuel Cohen
