The entry for this village in the in the Enciclopedia del románico [www.romanicodigital.com] reports a Romanesque church ["fábrica románica"], probably of late-12th century with later major modifications both inside and out; the font, monolithic square devoid of decoration, is located in a storage room off the porch ["un espacio moderno que hoy cumple las funciones de trastero, en donde existe una pila bautismal cuadrada de una sola pieza y sin ningún tipo de decoración." The entry for this village in Emiliano Nebreda Perdiguero [www.archiburgos.es/wp-content/uploads/amo-a-mi-pueblo.pdf] [accessed 18 December 2021] notes: "En lo más alto, a las afueras del pueblo, está situada su iglesia, dedicada a san Martín, obispo. Es románica [...] La pila es cuadrada en forma de pirámide invertida truncada y borde moldurado". No cover present but there is one metal staple still visible in the upper rim, and other evidence of metal plugs in it.
