Wetzelshain is the name of a late mediaeval abandoned village on a plateau in the central part of the Hohe Schrecke ridge in the county of Sömmerda in the German state of Thuringia.
It is located in the eponymous forest reserve about 5.5 km west-southwest of the town of Wiehe.
On the site of the village there are only a few signs of settlement in the shape of uneven ground.
The castle was besieged and destroyed around 1350 after the Rabenswaldes became robber knights during the Thuringian Counts' War.
Only about 1.5 km southeast of Wetzelshain lies another abandoned village that bears the name Lichtehain.
