Lindheimer House, Historic house museum in New Braunfels, Texas, United States

The Lindheimer House is a timber-framed saltbox-style house built in 1852 in New Braunfels. Its roof slopes lower at the back than at the front, and a central chimney heats the interior. Stucco covers the fachwerk on three sides, but the rear exposes the timber framing. The front has two paneled doors with transoms, and a loft serves as the second story.

Ferdinand Jacob Lindheimer, born in Frankfurt in 1801, emigrated to the United States in 1834 after persecution for his political activities. He built this timber-framed saltbox house in 1852, and from 1853 published the Die Neu Braunfels Zeitung from its rear print shop for two decades. The house joined the National Register of Historic Places in 1970 and was named a Recorded Texas Historic Landmark in 1936.

In 1853 Ferdinand Lindheimer became editor of the Die Neu Braunfels Zeitung and published it from his home for two decades, converting the rear of the house into a print shop. The German-language paper served the town's German-speaking community.

The building is managed by the New Braunfels Conservation Society and operates as a museum for visitors, with tours explaining the history of German settlement. It is located on Comal Avenue and can be reached on foot when exploring the historic core of the town.

In 1853 Ferdinand Lindheimer became editor of the Die Neu Braunfels Zeitung and printed it from his home for about two decades, turning the rear of the house into a print shop. The back wall still shows the fachwerk timber framing that stucco covers on the other three sides.
