The present font is noted and illustrated in Mémoire [ref.: e IVR42_200067B0922ZE] as a stone baptismal font made in 1944 by F.A. Marcel. The present baptismal font, round-shaped and decorated with Biblical scenes, including one of the Baptism of Christ, is a modern replacement of the disappeared font that existed in the 12th-century church here.
