Described in Catalunya romànica (1984- , vol. VI: 187): baptismal font of a late dete; the basin is roughly hemisherical but its design is very stylised giving it a late date appearance; the outer surface of the basin is covered in an incision pattern and the upper end of the basin side is depressed resulting in a narrower opening. [cf. Index entry for Sallent d'Organyà No. 1 for an interesting ornamented Romanesque stoup in this church]
