Schulin (2021) notes and illustrates a font of 1699 in this church; it appears monolithic -at least in design- a narrow basin with parallel mouldings at top and bottom, a stem of about the same width, decorated with human heads; the date 1699; and a moulded lower base; all three volumes are octagonal; the font is painted. A low pyramidal cover with a painted acorn finial. The German Wikipedia entry for this church
also notes and illustrates this font: "In Gebrauch ist ein achteckiger Taufstein, eine Steinsäule mit leicht nach außen geweiteten Wasserbecken, bezeichnet mit der Jahreszahl 1699 und geschmückt mit reliefartigen Engelsköpfen. Er steht in der Mitte vor dem Chor"; it gives "Schrenk/Zink, S. 227; Somplatzki, Streifzug, S. 11, 21" as reference.
