Griesheim-sur-Souffel is one of the 23 member communes of the Community of Communes of the Kochersberg.
It is important to distinguish between Griesheim-sur-Souffel and Griesheim-près-Molsheim, a slightly larger village positioned, as its name indicates, a short distance from Molsheim. The two Griesheims are less than twenty kilometres (twelve miles) apart.
The Souffel stream runs by the village's border with its neighbour village of Dingsheim.
