The Grote Kerk site [www.grotekerk-dordrecht.nl/plattegrond/onderdeel:ststevenskapel/language:nl] [accessed 27 June 2015] reports a font in Sint Stevenskapel, at the southwest corner of the south aisle, but it appears this is a modern font. The same site reports talks of transferring the font from the Augustinian church in this town, but nothing appears to have come of it. A communication from Pol Herman to BSI (e-mail of 24 July 2022) informs that this font was moved from the Augustijnenkerk to the Jeruzalemkapel in the Grote Kerk of Dordrecht 1st May 2021 [cf. ImagesArea for photos of the move]; he further notes that the font is owned by the Dordts Museum [cf. BSI entry for the Augustjniankerk]
