Kolhörster is a
lunar crater that is located on the
moon's
far side. It lies about a crater-diameter to the south-southeast of the crater
Kamerlingh Onnes, and to the northeast of the crater
Michelson. To the south of Kolhörster is an area marked with crater chains formed from secondary impacts during the creation of the
Mare Imbrium impact basin. About one crater-diameter to the southeast is the Catena Leuschner crater chain, while further to the south is Catena Michelson.
