Heiligenhaus has around 27,700 residents and lies in the Mettmann district of Nordrhein-Westfalen, on the heights between the Ruhr and Rhine valleys.

The Abtskuecher Teich, a pond surrounded by woodland, provides a local recreation area.
Velbert is directly to the east. Ratingen lies about 10 kilometres west. Essen is roughly 15 kilometres south. Duesseldorf is around 20 kilometres southwest. The town sits on elevated terrain between the Anger stream valley and the Bergisches Land ridge. Metal processing and precision engineering remain significant employers.
