Gesslerburg is the name of a medieval castle in Küssnacht. Like Hohle Gasse in the same town, it is linked to the legend of Wilhelm Tell. According to the historian Aegidius Tschudi, it is said to have been the seat of Landsvogt Hermann Gessler.

The remains of this medieval castle are on a hill east of Küssnacht. What remains are primarily the foundations and a few remains of the wall, which are open to the public. There is also a barbecue area at the foot of the hill.
