Baptismal font of granite located outside the church; it consists of a roughly hemispherical basin on a cylindrical pedestal base, both plain; the upper half of the stem appears to be part of the basin block; although it is a crude work and may be seen as medieval, the shape of the inner well of the basin suggests a late date rather than and early one. The church itself is from the Baroque period.
