The ruined castle of Güntersburg stands about 2 km southwest of Güntersberge in the Harz mountain range of central Germany.
The ruins are located on the 485 m Kohlberg hill above the Selke valley. The castle site is very large and has an area of about 3 hectares . It probably included a fortified settlement, possibly preceding modern Güntersberge, beside the proper castle. To the northwest the site was protected by a rampart and a 150 m long ditch, whose scale can still be easily made out today. To the southeast the site is bounded by the hillside that falls steeply into the Selke valley.
