A Gothic baptismal font from the collegiate church here is kept in the Marburger Universitätsmuseum. In the ruins is a fragment of a large vessel, round or hemispherical in shape; its exterior is decorated with floral and foliated motifs; could it have been originally a font? a fountain? a cloister lavabo?
