The hilltop castle is located on the Godesberg (now known as the Burgberg), a volcano that went extinct in prehistoric times and is the only prominent elevation in the Godesberg Rhine valley funnel. An already Roman settlement was proven by an altar stone walled into the Godesburg. In 722 the mountain was mentioned in a document as the Ubian cult site Woudensberg (Wotansberg).
