Schloß Lindenberg is a manor house located in the district of Lindenberg, within the municipality of Tauche in Brandenburg, Germany. The château is believed to have been constructed on the remnants of a late medieval predecessor. Throughout the 17th and 18th centuries, it was owned by the noble families of von Kracht and von Beeß. Notable figures associated with the estate include Otto Leopold von Beeß, a Prussian minister, and Hildebrand von Kracht, a former captain of the Küstrin fortress. In 1903, the estate was acquired by Wilhelm Colsman, a member of the entrepreneurial Colsman family from the Bergisches Land. Colsman introduced innovative agricultural methods and contributed to food supply efforts during World War I. In 1910, he commissioned Berlin landscape architect Ludwig Lesser to redesign the park surrounding the manor. The last owner before the estate's expropriation was Robert Pferdmenges, a banker and CDU politician, who hosted Konrad Adenauer in 1937. Architecturally, Schloß Lindenberg is a Baroque two-winged structure, retaining a room with central pillars and a staircase from the late medieval period. Today, the manor is only partially inhabited, preserving its historical and architectural significance.
