Described in Berggren (2002: 173-174 fn41) as an example of "the problems of determining where a specific font [...] has been carved". The church site [https://kirchengemeinde-neuburg.de/kirche.html] [accessed 12 December 2023] mentions only a modern font of Verona marble in it ["Die neue Taufe aus dem Jahre 1991 ist aus veronesischem Marmor"].
