Described in Bilbao (1996). Described and illustrated in Valle Barreda (2009) as a typical example of the fonts of the area. The entry for this church in the Enciclopedia del románico [https://www.romanicodigital.com/sites/default/files/pdfs/files/burgos_CASTRILLO_DE_LA_REINA.pdf] [accessed 18 March 2023] notes: ""En el interior encontramos una pila bautismal del estilo recurrente en la Sierra: de copa semiesférica con bocel en la embocadura bajo el que corre un bocelillo sogueado y la banda de tallo serpenteante del que brotan piñas, aquí de seco tratamiento, bajo el que se dispone otro junquillo sogueado y los consabidos gallones. La copa mide 104 cm de diámetro por 60 cm de altura, disponiéndose sobre un breve pilar cilíndrico entorchado y basa ática con garras sobre plinto, de 40 cm de altura. Sigue el modelo de las de Palacios o Terrazas, aunque aquí
ejecutado por manos menos expertas, y datará como aquéllas de los años finales del siglo XII o primer cuarto del XIII." The entry for this village in Emiliano Nebreda Perdiguero [www.archiburgos.es/wp-content/uploads/amo-a-mi-pueblo.pdf] [accessed March 2023] notes: "iglesia dedicada a San Esteban, protomártir, y es de estilo gótico–renacentista [...] la pila es románica con gajos y cenefa superior con decoración vegetal y pie cuadrado."
Baptismal font of the Romanesque period; hemispherical basin decorated with fruit-bearing vine, rope moulding and beaded-tape motif on the sides; the underbowl has ribbed pattern all around; short torsade stem; round-to-square lower base with spurs at the angles. Metal staples from the old cover still remain at opposite ends of the rim.
