Font Notes:
Click to view
Noted in Cabestany, Matas & Palau (2005) as a holy-water stoup with decoration so eroded now that one can hardly discern the geometric motifs; in the midst of the ruined church at the time, the authors suggest attribution to a local rural workshop of the late 12th or early 13th century. The church was restored in 2011.
