A description of the font here and its similarity of some other fonts of the area by Hofrat DDR Walter Lunger in the Landecker Kirchenführer is quoted in the parish web page [https://www.pfarren-landeck.at/index.php/pfarre-maria-himmelfahrt/322-taufstein-wieder-in-der-stadtpfarrkirche] [accessed 12 December 2022]: "Der restaurierte Taufstein ist wieder in unsere Stadtpfarrkirche zurückgekehrt und an seinem neuen Standort aufgestellt worden. Der spätgotische Taufstein hat einen achteckigen Sockel, dessen zwei einspringende, von einem sich an den Ecken kreuzenden Rundstab getrennte Hohlkehlen in den Stiel überleiten, der das achteckige, mit Wappentartschen geschmückte Faß trägt. Der Taufstein steht in einer Reihe gleichartiger, achteckiger Steine im Tiroler Oberland: Längenfeld (Ende des 15. Jhs.), Landeck (1506), Nassereith (1507) und Fließ (1523), was auf eine Tradition der Bauhütten Imst und Landeck-Grins-Pfunds schließen läßt. Der Taufstein gleicht in dieser Form einem überdimensionierten Becher. (zitiert nach dem von Hofrat DDR Walter Lunger verfaßten Landecker Kirchenführer)". The cots of arms are described in the Wikiwand entry for this church [https://www.wikiwand.com/de/Pfarrkirche_Landeck-Mariä_Himmelfahrt] and [https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pfarrkirche_Landeck-Mariä_Himmelfahrt] [accessed 12 December 2022]: "Im Hauptschiff steht ein spätgotischer achteckiger Taufstein mit der Jahreszahl 1506 und einem Wappenrelief Ivan, Schrofenstein, Annenberg und einem österreichischen Bindenschild" [NB: the source for the two Wiki sources may be Die Kunstdenkmäler Österreichs. Dehio Tirol 1980]. [cf. BSI entry for Lamdeck No. 1 for the Early Christian baptistery font excavated here in 2012]
