Baptismal font made of bronze in 1424; it consists of a roughly bucket-shaped basin raised on four stanfing figures secured to a circular lower base also of bronze; the upper rim has an anchoring point for the original font cover lock; the sides of the basin have an arcade of pointed arches with trefoiled intrados, in which are several scenes of the Vita Christi cycle (Annunciation, Adoration, Flight to Egypt, Baptism of Christ) as well as a scene of the Coronation of Mary in Heaven; the arches rest on buttresses, not columns; an inscription is located around the lower basin sides; the Konzert-Kirche Gettorf site [www.konzertkirche-gettorf.de/index.php/die-kirche.html] [accessed 26 April 2018] points out that the four supporting figures are four youths in Burgundian costumes; on the lower basin sides are a series of tiny scenes and figures, among which is a Crucifixion with Mary and John present. Font said to have been donated in 1424 by Wulf von Ahlefeldt. The font cover above the font is of a later date, 1712.
