The place is an old coal mining settlement and is located on the northern edge of the municipality of Ritzing, high up on the mountain directly on the Austrian-Hungarian border. Sealed off by the Iron Curtain until the end of the 1980s, Helenenschacht is now just a stone's throw from the Hungarian sister mine, Brennbergbánya, and down to Sopron / Ödenburg.
