The Helenenschacht colony is located in the Ödenburger Mountains, which separates northern Burgenland from central Burgenland. 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.
