There are not only two crosses on the summit, one for Bavaria and one for Tyrol. Also on the way, on the detour to the up or. Descending to the Bavarian side you can find this rock, which also marks the border.

During the Würm Ice Age, the Kranzhorn and the opposite Wildbarren formed the gateway to the Inn Valley Glacier.

On the German side, the mountain belongs to the municipality of Nußdorf am Inn in the Rosenheim district, and on the Austrian side to the municipality of Erl in the Kufstein district.

Since 1504, the border between Bavaria and Austria has run through the middle of the summit plateau. The border was definitively established in 1670, and some of the boundary stones can still be found alongside the hiking trails. The summit of the mountain therefore bears two summit crosses and is visible from afar in the Inn Valley.
