Click to view
The present font in this late-13th century church is 18th-century; it consists of the standing figure of a child holding on his head a roughly hemispherical basin with concave ribbing pattern on its underbowl; it bears an inscription around the upper basin side: "[...] BECKER F.F. [...] M: M.D.C.C.XXX[...]", which may refer to the donor and the date of the donation of the font. [NB: we have no information on the font from the 13th-century church here].
