Reinhold is a prominent lunar impact crater that lies to the south-southwest of Copernicus crater, on the Mare Insularum. To the southeast is the slightly smaller crater Lansberg.

The interior walls are d and the irregular outer ramparts are visible against the flat surface of the mare. The interior floor is relatively featureless, with only a few low rises. Just to the northeast is a low, flooded crater designated Reinhold B.
