Listed and illustrated in the DIO (Deutsche Inschriften Online) [https://www.inschriften.net/landkreis-goettingen/inschrift/nr/di066-0192.html/] [accessed 6 February 2023] as a baptismal font of sandstone, a roughly cylindrical basin raised on four very weathered animals; the basin sides are decorated with eight arcades, the decoration also very eroded here: Madonna and Child, Crucifixion, coat of arms and inscription, shield with defaced content, a shield that had originally a six-line inscription of which little is discernible now, coat of arms, shield with inscription and another such: "Taufstein. Sandstein. Der runde geradwandige Taufstein steht auf einem Fuß aus vier stark verwitterten Tierfiguren. Die Beckenwandung ist umgeben von Blendarkaden, in den acht Bogenfeldern zum Teil stark verwitterte Reliefs: Maria mit Kind; Kruzifix; Schild mit der Inschrift A; Schild mit zerstörtem Inhalt; Schild mit ursprünglich sechszeiliger Inschrift B, von der nur noch der äußere rechte Teil erhalten ist, da der Stein auf dieser Seite einschließlich des ausgebuchteten oberen Randes abgeflacht ist; Vollwappen; Schild mit Inschrift C; Schild mit Inschrift D. Alle Inschriften sind erhaben gehauen." The entry for this font in Gisela Bähren-Aye's Taufbecken in Niedersachsen aus der Zeit vom Ende des Dreißigjährigen Krieges bis zur Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts (2005) notes that the old font at Oberscheden, dated 1577, was was replaced ca. 1742, when the present church was built, by a baroque wooden font. Later, in 1967, the old font was restored, and the wooden font was sold and is now in Schloss Ricklingen, Garbsen.
