Bucket-shape baptismal font cast in bronze in 1512 by Andreas Ribe; the basin has a band with an inscription of Gothic lettering around the upper side of the basin, and two knobs that have been part of the cover anchorage system in the past; on the sides of the basin are two rows of figures, the ones on the upper register being larger than those on the lower one; the upper register includes at least one Madonna and Child, and several apostles or saints as well as clerics; around the lower side are more holy figures; around the lower end of the basin is band of frill-like ornamentation; the base consists of a central moulded shaft bearing an inscription, and four outer humanoid figures arranged at 90-degree angles; the figures are those of wildmen or woodwooses, all male and naked.
