Baptismal font in Cauffry

The baptismal font in the Catholic Church of St-Aubin in Cauffry , a French parish in the Oise department in the Hauts-de-France region , was created in the 13th century. In 1911, the Gothic baptismal font was added to the list of protected objects ( Base Palissy ) in France as Monument historique .

The oval baptismal font made of limestone stands on an octagonal base with four columns ending at the corners. These are created from a stone block with the baptismal font. The edge of the pool is decorated with a relief of vegetable motifs.
