Noted and illustrated in Mackeprang (1941), Baptismal font made of granit; it consists of a roughly hemispherical or tub-shaped basin decorated with four heads at 90-degree angles on the upper rim area; the sides of the basin are divided into two registers, both decorated with large vines; the stem of the font is conical and has two roll mouldings on it; the lower base is square but we are not certain whether it is an original part of the font. No cover present.
