Stone baptismal font consisting of a large roughly hemispherical basin decorated with broad ribs all around, framed atop by round arches; on a squat round base; the inner basin has now a modern removable insert. There is no cover present but the upper rim of the basin has damage probably related to metal staples for an old cover. [cf. Index entry for Armedilla, for the disappeared font of the nearby monastery of Armedilla]
