The entry for this village in Emiliano Nebreda Perdiguero [www.archiburgos.es/wp-content/uploads/amo-a-mi-pueblo.pdf] [accessed 5 March 2021] notes: "San Nicolás de Bari es el titular de su iglesia, de una nave con restos románicos y bóvedas de medio cañón. [...] El ábside es rectangular, liso. La portada es románica", but mentions no font in it." The present font in use, located in the chancel, south side, is goblet-shaped, the round basin decorated with a pattern of deeply-carved ribs all around, raised on a squat round-to-square lower base; the design points to a very late medieval period, perhaps 16th-century or even later. No cover present. [cf. BSI entry forTeza de Losa No. 1 for another font in this church]
