Scene Description: Source caption: "Beaunotte [...] fonts baptismaux de l'église de la Nativité [...] En 1835 d'importants travaux ont été réalisés. [...] C'est très probablement lors de ces travaux que les déblais furent déversés dans ce qui devait être alors une maison en ruine. Quelque cent ans plus tard, les nouveaux propriétaires entreprirent l'évacuation de ces déblais. Ainsi furent retrouvés ces fonts baptismaux du XIIIe siècle. Leurs héritiers, à la veille de quitter définitivement le village les ont restitués à notre collectivité, exprimant le souhait de leur réinstallation dans l'église. www.fondation-patrimoine.org/uploads/medias/pdf/5b361f491..".

There is an 18 March 2020 entry in the Académie des sciences, arts et belles lettres de Dijon for a conference to be delivered by Françoise Vignier 'Sauvetage du patrimoine en Châtillonnais : le retour des fonts baptismaux dans l’église de Beaunotte, les travaux à la Fosse de Coulmier, l’avenir du Moulin de Roche à Aignay', but it is followed by a notification: "Séance annulée. Trois cas de sauvetage du patrimoine rural du Châtillonnais seront évoqués lors de cette séance : le retour dans l’église de Beaunotte des fonts baptismaux du XIIIe siècle". The above was part of a conference gathering cancelled on account of the pandemia [="Conférences annulées par l’Académie des sciences, arts et belles lettres de Dijon en raison de l’épidémie de Coronavirus."] The hexagonal basin of the Beaunotte church is illustrated in Flickr by Odile Cognard [https://www.flickr.com/photos/154591517@N03/45407856581] [accessed 30 January 2022]. [NB: we have no information at this time [30 January 2022] on whether the font has been reinstalled in this church or not].
