Tamariz de Campos No. 3

When the church of San Juan Bautista, one of two in this town, was abandoned ca. 1940, many of the furnishings were removed (e.g.: the main Baroque retable was cut up and taken to the Catedral de Nuestra Señora de la Asunción in Santander capital); the baptismal font remained exposed to all winds for a few years 'until one day someone came with a van and bought it from the parish priest' ["hasta que un día vino alguien con una furgoneta y se la compró al cura"] -- [source: Fernando Monsalve's web page www.geocities.com/monsalvegf/sanjuan.htm]
