Described in the Catálogo Monumental de Navarra (1990?- , vol. V**: 167) as a baptismal font of the early 13th century in the proto-Gothic style of the area. Plain cylindrical mounted baptismal font; the basin is rather shallow and very worn; round pedestal; lower base has a very large rounded moulding but the bottom is square [NB: the CMdeN mentions a holy-water stoup by the door but not its date -- not listed]. [We are grateful to Javier Torrens, of Pamplona, Spain, for the images of this font]
