Bronze with inlaid silver. The reliefs.
It made by after the old door had been damaged in the fire of 1823.
It's 7.48 metres high and 3.35 metres wide.
The old door had been a gift from Pope Gregory VII, set up in 1070, and was made of the same materials.
The reliefs on the door show scenes from the lives, apostolates and martyrdoms of SS Peter and Paul, according to the wishes of the abbot of the monastery, Ildefonso Shuster.
Apart from the two central scenes, all of the events depicted took place in Rome.
