Described in the Catálogo Monumental de Navarra (1990?- , vol. V*: 33): baptismal font of the 16th century; hemispherical basin ornamented with angular ribbed pattern as well as a triple moulding at the upper rim; the pedestal base has an upper cylindrical end framed by mouldings, an octagonal stem and a lower round-to-square lower base. The inner well of the basin is divided into four compartments but the division appears to be a later, modern alteration. Flat and plain wooden cover; modern. Perhaps of more interest here is the curious holy-water stoup wall-mounted on the left [west] side of the portal; the basin has the shape of an animal head, perhaps a bovid, with a 'face' carved on the front.
