history
The street village was probably built around 1100 from a castle that belonged to the Speyer monastery . At the end of the 13th century, Lindenberg went to the Lords of Frankenstein as a fief . In 1550 the castle was destroyed. Until the end of the 18th century, the community belonged to the Speyer monastery and from 1632 was under the Deidesheim office .
From 1798 to 1814, when the Palatinate was part of the French Republic (until 1804) and then part of the Napoleonic Empire , Lindenberg was incorporated into the canton of Neustadt (Donnersberg) and was subordinate to the Mairie Lambrecht . In 1815 the community had a total of 260 inhabitants. In the same year, Austria was struck. Just one year later, the place, like the entire Palatinate, changed to the Kingdom of Bavaria . From 1817 to 1862 the community belonged to the Landkommissariat Neustadt ; from this the district office of Neustadt emerged.
From 1939 Lindenberg was part of the district of Neustadt an der Weinstrasse . After the Second World War , the place within the French occupation zone became part of the administrative district of Palatinate in the then newly formed state of Rhineland-Palatinate . In the course of the first Rhineland-Palatinate administrative reform , the place moved in 1969 to the newly created district of Bad Dürkheim . Three years later, Lindenberg became part of the also newly created Verbandsgemeinde Lambrecht (Palatinate) .

Justification for the coat of arms: The linden tree refers to the place name. The wall and the stag pole stand for the castle, which was lost and belonged to the Lords of Hirschhorn from 1353 . St. Cyriacus reminds of the chapel by the castle.
