The Stünenburg is the remainder of a hilltop castle on an approximately 355 meter high mountain in the Green district of Iserlohn in the Märkisches Kreis in North Rhine-Westphalia .
Finds on the now-leveled castle square of the Stünenburg suggest that the castle existed between the 12th and 15th centuries. The few remaining remains are protected with the Burgplatz as a ground monument and are of importance for further archaeological research.
