The listed memorial stone for the victims of the raft accident on May 21, 1907 is a four-meter-high cuboid made of shell limestone . The monument is located on the right high bank of the Isar , about halfway between Ismaning (Upper Bavaria) and the Ismaning district of Fischerhäuser at river kilometer 132.3 (file number D-1-84-130-23).
