A farmer loaded his ox team with wood. On top, he placed his small child. Suddenly, the oxen are said to have bolted, with the small child sitting on top behind them. In his great distress, the farmer vowed that where the wagon came to a stop, he would erect a large cross in thanks. At the foot of the mountain, the ox team actually came to a stop, and as if by a miracle, the child remained unharmed.

The Oxenkreuz has nothing to do with the Oxen drive from Hungary - the explanation is noted in the chapel. It is a vow by a farmer from 1892.

The castle dates back to the end of the 18th century. Since the end of the 19th century it has been owned by the Barons von Herman. The castle and its gardens are only open to visitors for events.

There used to be a castle belonging to the Barons von Gumppenberg on the mountain. After its destruction it was not rebuilt; instead, the materials from the ruins were used in Pöttmes. Johannes Freiherr von Gumppenberg built a log cabin on the mountain after the Second World War.
