Click to view
The present baptismal font consists of a roughly hemispherical basin decorated with a thick roll moulding at the uppe rim, otherwise plain; in this remim remains a metal staple of the old cover; the ill-matched pedestal base is square, with mouldings at top and bottom. [NB: the church itself goes back to the Romanesque period, but we have no information of the earlier font]
