  Question Is this an old church bell used top down as holy water font? --Uoaei1 (talk) 11:50, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
;-) No, the size may be possible, but it is stone. --XRay talk 12:39, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@XRay So it's a stone with holy water? I think it'd be good to write it in the description of the file. At least to me, it's quite unusual to see such a big holy water fountain in the middle of the church. Anyway, it's a totally well done picture with a great wow factor so big   Support from me. --Podzemnik (talk) 15:16, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I think it is a stoup or a baptismal font, hopefully the correct translation. I'll ask and append it to the description. --XRay talk 15:29, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
BTW: I also know of walk-in baptisteries / fonts, see for example: File:Maria-Magdalena-Kirche-Wattenscheid-Taufstelle.jpg. During the christening the priest walks together with the child being christened inside the font. --Tuxyso (talk) 16:06, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
The church was built from 1936 to 1938 and partially destroyed during the World War II. The chapel wasn't rebuild. The original baptismal font (of the chapel) is located at the end of the church near the crypt. The stoup is located at the door, but unused. So I'm not sure, baptismal font or stoup. But I'm living in Dülmen. It's no problem to get an answer. --XRay talk 17:45, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
It's a stoup. I'll add this to the categories and the description. --XRay talk 19:35, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
