Described and illustrated in the Catálogo Monumental de Navarra (1990?- , vol. II**: 67 and pl. 63) as a font of the 13th century; also described in Domeño (1992: 149): medieval baptismal font with a plain hemispherical basin resting on a side protrusion of the north wall of the nave. Plain flat wooden lid. On-site notes: the font is located in an alcove of the north wall, towards the west end of the nave, behind a railing; the font consists of a roughly hemispherical basin raised on a polygonal base that appears to be built into a protrusion of the wall, and partly into the old flooring, which makes the measurements taken somewhat speculative. The basin is plain except for a moulding around the upper rim; the inner well of the basin has been divided into two, leaving only one half functional but totally tiled; the drain hole is still part of the available half. The wooden cover is round and flat, hinged half-way to give access to the available half of the well.
