Click to view
Mentioned by Delcor (1973: 108) as a plain round Romanesque stone font. A partial view of the font is shown in a photograph in Roussillon roman (Zodiaque, 1986: pl. 95). The font, a plain monolithic round tub of almost cylindrical shape, is totally devoid of decoration of any sort; it resides in the narthex, located at the west end of the church next to the beautiful portal. No cover present.
