Location of Lindenhorst in Dortmund

Lindenhorst ( Low German : Linnenhoarst) is the statistical district 14 and at the same time a district of the urban city of Dortmund . It is located in the north of Dortmund and belongs to the Eving district .

Lindenhorst was first mentioned in 1176 as Lyndenhorst . It was the ancestral seat of the Lords of Lindenhorst, who from 1296 also became the Counts of Dortmund . The ancestral seat of the noble family was located near today's Protestant church, which probably served as the manor's chapel as early as the 12th century. With the dissolution of the county of Dortmund in 1808, the place was incorporated into the territory of the Grand Duchy of Berg . Lindenhorst has only been part of the city of Dortmund since it was incorporated on June 10, 1914. The listed Johanneskirche is remarkable .

The growth of the until then exclusively agricultural town began in 1872 with the establishment of the Fürst Hardenberg colliery on the border with the Deusen district .

The sports club TuS Eving-Lindenhorst is known nationwide, from which well-known national soccer players such as Lars Ricken and Michael Zorc and the goalkeeper Stefan Klos emerged .

Today the district borders on the Dortmund-Ems Canal in the west and the Bundesstrasse 54 in the east .

Lindenhorst, like the neighboring district of Eving to the east, is one of the 13 socially disadvantaged districts of Dortmund.
