Baptismal font of granite, ca. 1300? The entry for this church in Nordenskirker [www.nordenskirker.dk/Tidligere/Bellinge/Bellinge_kirke.htm] [accessed 5 March 2019] notes that it is not listed in Mackeprang (1941): "Den romansk granitfont er muligvis fra den tidlige trækirke. Fonten er ikke registreret i Mackeprang." The font is made of course reddish granite, a roughly cylindrical basin on a round pedestal base and a circular lower base; all plain. No cover present.
