Noted and illustrated in the Deutsche Inschriften Online / DI 83, Landkreis Holzminden, Nr. 141 (Jörg H. Lampe und Meike Willing), in: www.inschriften.net, https://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:0238-di083g015k0014100 [accessed 12 July 2022] as a baptismal font made of sandstone and now painted in a reddish brown hue; the basin sides are divided horizontally into two bands by a moulding; a German-language inscription version of John 3 runs along the two parts; the tall underbowl chamfer may be the result of a later re-cutting, as is the inscription on one of the underbowl sides that commemorates the 1878 restoration; the font is believed to be originally from the former parish church that collapsed in 1777.
