Baptismal font in Le Mesnil-en-Thelle

The baptismal font in the Catholic parish church of St-Michel in Le Mesnil-en-Thelle , a French commune in the Oise department in the Hauts-de-France region , was created in the 16th century. In 1912 the baptismal font was added to the list of protected objects ( Base Palissy ) in France as Monument historique .

The 85 cm high stone baptismal font stands on a base, each of which was made from a stone block. The gadronized basin has a bulge on the upper edge that has been painted in a marbled shape.

The wooden lid is from a later time.
