The wikipedia entry for this village [https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osieki_Lęborskie#Historia] [accessed 9 April 2023] reports a 14th-century baptismal font in it: "XIV-wieczna chrzcielnica". The font consists of an octagonal basin decorated an assortment of motifs, symbols and animals inscribed in plain round arches; the carvings are now painted on; the present pedestal base appears to be a modern replacement, as an older photograph [cf. ImagesArea] shows a different one. Also modern is the wooden cover, with a metal orb-and-cross finial.
