The entry for this church in the German Wikipedia [https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Cosmae_et_Damiani_(Stade)] [accessed 28 December 2023] mentions a baptismal font made of marble in 1665 ["Das Marmortaufbecken ist 1665 datiert, es wird von Alabasterfiguren der Evangelisten getragen. Die zeitgleiche, geschmiedete Umgitterung des Taufbeckens hat eine neue Aufstellung gefunden"]. The present font in this church is located by the left side of the main altar; it is a Baroque piece consisting of a roughly hemispherical basin of red veined marble mounted on a pedestal of dark marble with four alabaster heads and four figures of the same material at 90-degree angles all around; each of the figures holds an open book; one is accompanied by a little angel holding up a chaice.
