Das Schloss Bürresheim steht nordwestlich von Mayen auf einem Felssporn im Nettetal. Es gehört zur Ortsgemeinde Sankt Johann. Gemeinsam mit Burg Eltz und der Burg Lissingen ist es eine der wenigen Anlagen in der Eifel, die niemals erobert oder verwüstet wurden und die Kriege des 17. und 18. Jahrhunderts sowie die gesellschaftlichen Umbrüche der Französischen Revolution unversehrt überstehen konnten.

Durch seine einzigartige Lage im Grenzgebiet der Besitzungen von Kurköln und Kurtrier bestimmten diese Erzbistümer die Geschichte des Schlosses maßgeblich mit."
