The church contains a relatively modern holy-water stoup consisting of a roughly hemispherical basin the sides of which are decorated with garlands, saw-tooth and a moulding; raised on a round pedestal base of baluster shape decorated with mouldings. This stoup is listed and illustrated in the database Mémoire as a "Bénitier" [=stoup], yet it appears in their 1920 Meys' photograph [ref.: MH0032247 -- APMH00032247] with a dome cover on it as if it were a baptismal font [was it being used as one at the time of the Mémoire photograph?]. [NB: we have no information on the font of the medieval church here]
