The description by Mestre i Godes (1999) and Adell reads: inside is kept a 11th century baptismal font, the only known in Catalonia to be built 'en paret d'obra' [=built in?]. [NB: the entry for this church and several others in the Vall de Boi are in preparation in the Enciclopedia del románico [www.romanicodigital.com] -- checked 15 January 2023]. [NB: there appear to be two fonts and two holy-water stoups in this church now [2023]; of the two fonts neither appears to correspond to the one described in Mestre i Godes [cf. supra]; the one in the interior is extant of any wall but may be built into the ground, whether originally or not, a round basin inside and out, resembling rather a well-head; the other font is in the porch [cf. ImagesArea], as are the two stoups; the font outside consists of a roughly cylindrical basin on an irregular quadrangular pedestal base; all three objects in the porch appear to be very crudely executed works].
