In 1708 a carved altar, which was in the church at that time and was made around 1500 in the Pankratius Grueber carving workshop in Grossenhain, was sold to Tröbitz, where it has been preserved to this day. The donor Georg von Köckritz, who owned Elsterwerda from 1462 to 1499, and his wife Katharina von Schleinitz as well as the Köckritz coat of arms are shown on this. In addition, Baron Waldemar von Löwendal, who had been resident in Elsterwerda Castle since 1708, had the patronage box built.
The pulpit altar dates from the middle of the 18th century. The octagonal baptismal font with crossed tracery was created between 1520 and 1530 and bears three lilies of the old Elsterwerda noble family von Köckritz on the shaft.
