There are two baptismal fonts inside this church; the modern one, of grey marble (?) consists of a shallow basin with a gadrooned underbowl, raised on a baluster-shaped pedestal base; the inner basin of this font has multiple internal divisions (double basin, cavities for holy oils, etc.). No cover present. The old baptismal font consists of a roughly cylindrical basin decorated with quadrangular panels, one of which has a large Greek cross in it; graded mouldings on the basin underbowl and the squat round base; damaged upper rim. No cover present.
