Next to the rosette is the figure of John the Baptist and St. Joseph, patron saint of Croatia. In the lunette above the door is the Holy Trinity, the work of Robert Franges Mihanović of 1902. Above the lunette are three sculptures: Jesus Christ, the founder of the Catholic Church, King Ladislav, the founder of the Archdiocese of Zagreb, and St. Stephen.
