Anton Schachner was found dead at the bull's cross on June 23, 1828. He drove an ox up to the Rachaualm, but had the strap wrapped too tightly around his hand so that he could not let go of the cord when his ox was frightened by a horse. The ox dragged Anton Schachner to his death
This memorial cross was made in 2005 and placed here.

The simply crafted wooden railing surrounding this memorial cross creates a small "sacred area" around the small sacred monument. The cross itself, also made of wood, lacks a corpus or INRI plaque, but is covered with a protective gable roof. The crossbeam bears the inscription "Bull's Cross" and the year "2005." Attached to the longitudinal beam, just below the crossing, is an information panel with an image and inscription explaining the purpose of this cross—the commemoration of Anton Schachner, who died in 1828.
