The Stettenburg Castle Stable is located about 1000 meters northwest of the St. Nikolaus Catholic parish church in Obervolkach on a spur of 273.7 m above sea level, which faces west-northwest. NN high Stettenberg, in the Dornstück corridor there.

The mountain, which is forested in its northern part and used as a vineyard in the south, is surrounded by the Volkach on the west and south-west side, to the east and south-east by the valley of the Weidachbach. The castle is about 30 meters west below the summit of the mountain and is protected on three sides by moderately steep slopes and by the Volkach river. Several paths lead from Obervolkach to the former castle.
