The present baptismal font consists of a gadrooned basin of hemispherical shape, made of red marble; raised on a baluster-type stem and a triangular base which bears on the dront side of the triangular block the coat of arms of Gregor Angerer, said to have been builder of the church in the 16th century; the lower base is also triangular. The wooden cover is of the rim-buffet type, with vertical panels and a domed top, also panelledand painted; no finial. The font and cover are now semi-built into the wall.
