Listed in Palissy [ref.: PM22000746] [https://www.pop.culture.gouv.fr/notice/palissy/PM22000746] and illustrated in Mémoire [ref.: AP22W01424] [https://www.pop.culture.gouv.fr/notice/memoire/AP22W01424] [accessed 17 June 2022] as a baptismal font made of granit in the 15th century: "Fonts baptismaux [...] granite [...] Sur un socle à moulures se tiennent quatre personnages [...] 15e siècle [...] H = 107 ; d = 74 (Diamètre extérieur) ; Diamètre intérieur = 53 [...] Cette cuve baptismale a longtemps servi de vase à fleurs dans la cour du presbytère [...] Oeuvre restaurée". A baptismal font of the 'atlante' type, much like the one at Dinan, a roughly hemispherical basin held by four standing human figures, raised on a roughly cylindrical lower base with mouldings; the interior of the basin has a concave ribbed pattern all around. No font cover present. The font is originally from the earlier medieval church here, moved to the present building when the old one was demolished.
