A baptismal font, probably of the 15th or 16th century, consisting of a goblet-shaped basin raised on an moulded octagonal pedestal base; the upper basin side has a row of vertical frets framed between two thin mouldings; the rest of the basin plain with tapering sides and a rounded underbowl; the upper rim shows signs of damage consistent with the forceful removal of the old cover staples. [NB: the font, displayed in the museum in the context of a Romanesque portal from the Ojeda region, is probably not related to it at all].
