Baptismal font in Sequedin

The baptismal font in the Catholic Church of St-Laurent in Sequedin , a French parish in the Nord department in the Hauts-de-France region , was probably created in the 14th century. In 1973, the Gothic- style baptismal font was added to the list of listed buildings ( Base Palissy ) in France as Monument historique

The approximately one meter high baptismal font made of bluestone stands on a round base with a column. The round basin has a diameter of 66 cm and is decorated with blind arcades on the outside .
