Jahrhundert den Kopf einer Säule der ersten Abteikirche in Hardehausen bildete. Die Seiten sind je 1 m lang. Der Chronik ist zu entnehmen, dass der Erbpächter Langenheim aus Hardehausen etwa 1820 dieses Kapitell stiftete. Es wurde mit 6 Pferden von Hardehausen nach Bonenburg gebracht. Dort erfolgte die Aufstellung und Aushöhlung von Hand. Ein kupfernes Becken kostete 2 Thaler, 1 Silbergroschen, der Deckel darüber kostete 7 Thaler, 17 Silbergroschen und 10 Pfennig. (Quelle: Chronik von Pfr. Strieder 1822-1849)"]. This source reports the former capital now [2014] in the church at Bonenburg.
