Schloss Wernrode stands in the hamlet of the same name, part of the town of Bleicherode at the foot of the Hainleite hills.

Visible features include a round-arched gateway with rusticated stonework and female bust decoration, a round stair tower, corner turrets with pyramidal roofs, and, in the adjoining park, the remains of a medieval motte along with a pond once used to regulate water for a mill.
