history

In 1371 Heinrich Rauschner II, residing in the neighboring Zultenberg Castle , received permission from Bamberg Bishop Ludwig von Meißen to build a "wooden" house in "Lyntenberg" on the castle site. The Rauschner were Ministeriale of the Andechs-Meranier .

After the fortress had already been destroyed by the Hussites , the castle was burned down by Weismain's citizens in the course of the Peasants' War in 1526 .

After the Rauschner family with Joachim Rauschner von Lindenberg († 1560) died out, the manor went to the Waldenfels , later to the Künsberg and the Guttenberg . The tomb of Joachim Rauschner is in the Johanneskirche in Kasendorf.

In 1730 Johann Christoph Ludwig Lochner von Hüttenbach acquired the manor, which was in very poor condition as a result of the Thirty Years' War , and built a new castle, which is reminiscent of a coat of arms stone with the year 1736. After the death of Baron Lochner († 1816), the properties were sold to the Lindenbergers and farmers in the area. In 1820 the Lindenberg innkeeper, Johann Friedrich Pensel, had the castle property demolished and used the stones to build houses No. 5 (until 1838), No. 6 and for the barn.

The square tower hill with moat and outer wall are still preserved from the former moth enclosure.
