In said document, which is dated November 29 of the year mentioned, the place is returned as an archiepiscopal fief from Heinrich von Eikendorf to the Archbishop of Magdeburg, "So that he would give the Althaldensleben monastery with it". Lindhorst is definitely older than mentioned here.

Incorporations
In 1950, the municipality of Lindhorst was changed by the second ordinance to the law amending the district and municipal boundaries from April 27, 1950 to July 1, 1950 (Law and Official Gazette of the State of Saxony-Anhalt No. 18, pp. August 1950) merged with the former municipality of Colbitz , the name is Colbitz.
Until 1994, Lindhorst was part of the Colbitz community. In 1994 it was decided to introduce the local constitution in accordance with Section 86 of the Saxony-Anhalt municipal code in the Colbitz municipality, combined with the definition of a Lindhorst village in the municipality's main statute. That meant the village of Lindhorst was organizationally, but not legally, an independent part of the Colbitz community. As of January 1, 2010, the local constitution is suspended, as in the Elbe-Heide Association, which was newly formed on the same date, according to the Saxony-Anhalt Association Law, member communities are not allowed to form localities.
On January 11, 2009, a citizens' survey took place in the Colbitz community about the spin-off of the Lindhorst community from the Colbitz community and its integration as the eighth member community into the future Elbe-Heide community. The vote ended with 666 votes in favor of this variant. On January 27, the Colbitz municipal council evaluated the survey. Contrary to the result of the hearing of the population, the municipal council decided not to commission the mayor to apply for the spin-off of the Lindhorst district. As a result, a referendum took place in February and March, with which the municipal council resolution could be overturned and which led to a referendum. This took place on June 7, 2009 parallel to the European Parliament and local council elections, but failed because of the excessive number of no votes in the Colbitz district.
