Glesius (2013) mentions a late-Gothic baptismal font ["ein spätgotischer Taufstein"] in this church. There are two baptismal fonts in this church: a modern font at the south end of the new extension and an old font in the old nave; the older font consists of an octagonal basin raised on an octagonal to square pedestal base; it is plain except for the four stops that make the lower base square. The older font could very well be of the same date as the present church, the 15th century. No cover present.
