Font Notes:
There are two fonts in this church: a fragment of a font located outside [cf. BSI entry for Kralice No. 1] and the baptismal font used inside; the latter is a chalice-shaped vessel with a goblet-shaped basin and a round pedestal base; the former font has a plain basin, perhaps dating back to the original 14th-century church; the stem and lower base appear to be modern replacements. No cover present.
