Does anybody know how to manage PHP-Cronjobs with an Apache web server?!?

Do you mean cron jobs that are run as the apache user?

Just a PHP-Script I want to run every hour.

You don't really need apache then. Just add a crontab entry for any user that has the relevant permissions like:
15 * * * * /path/to/script.php > /var/log/myscript.log 2>&1

This assumes that you want to run it at 15 minutes past the hour.
