The present font in this church is modern, made of reddish marble; it consists of a broad but shallow octagonal basin decorate with concave ribbed pattern around the underbowl; raised on a pedestal base; there is at least one large stoup that is quite similar to the font, but the upper rim is round instead of octagonal; both in reddish marble, both modern [NB: we have no information on the font of the 12th-century church here; it may have been destroyed in the fire of 1276].
