Click to view
Baptismal font consisting on a roughly hemispherical basin raised on a short round pedestal base, both plain; the basin appears to have been damaged and later repaired. No cover present. [NB: outside the village is a rural chapel, Ermita de San Andrés, which may have been the actual monastery church of the Monasterio de San Andrés de Boada [10th-11th century?], and, as such, ought to have had a font originally.]
