Burg Lindweiler stands in Blankenheim (Kreis Euskirchen), in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. No visits are on record for this building.

Burg Lindweiler was a former moated castle, now vanished, located in the hamlet of the same name within the municipality of Blankenheim, in the Kreis Euskirchen. First recorded in the early fourteenth century as a fortified house held in fief by the von Rohr family, it later passed through several noble families by marriage and inheritance, including the von Densborn, von Metternich and von Harff lines. The medieval buildings were torn down in 1846 by a new owner, a pharmacist, who had a farmstead built in their place. No structures or ditch remains are visible above ground today.
