Neuss.de [https://www.neuss.de/presse/archiv/2013/01/28.01.2013-romanisches-taufbecken-aus-rosellen] [accessed 27 June 2022] reports a fragment of a Romanesque baptismal font showing the Apostles Peter and Paul, thought to be originally from Rosellen St Peter's; the fragment is located now January 2013] in the Clemens-Sels-Museum Neuss ["Grabens einen merkwürdigen Stein, der sich als Bruchstück eines romanischen Taufsteins entpuppte. Auf dem erhaltenen Fragment sind die Apostel Petrus und Johannes zu erkennen. Das Becken, das ursprünglich vermutlich in der Pfarrkirche St. Peter aufgestellt war, entstand in der Zeit um 1200 und ist eines der ältesten Taufbecken im Rheinkreis Neuss. Der Taufstein ist derzeit im Clemens-Sels-Museum Neuss zu sehen"]. The present font in this church appears modern [cf. ImagesArea]
