Click to view
Described in Bilbao (1994: 131) as a plain baptismal font of the Romanesque period. Bilbao (ibid.) cites an entry in the Catálogo Monumental de la Diócesis de Vitoria. The baptismal font in this church consists of a hemispherical basin plain but for a roll moulding at the upper rim, raised on a round to square pedestal base. A wooden font cover, round, flat and plain sits atop the font. Neither the church nor font are listed in the Enciclopedia del románico. The font is more likely late-medieval.
