Listed in the Catálogo Monumental de Navarra (1990?- , vol. V**: 161) as a baptismal font contemporary with the church itself [i.e., early 13th century]. It consists of a smallish bucket-shaped basin ornamented with a blind low-relief arcade; the basin is raised on a roughly cylindrical stem. The basin has a flat wooden lid, probably modern [NB: the base is coated or cemented heavily] [We are grateful to Javier Torrens, of Pamplona, Spain, for the image of this font]
