Schaubühne Lindenfels, Cultural center and theatre in Karl-Heine-Straße, Leipzig, Germany.

Schaubühne Lindenfels is a cultural center located at Karl-Heine-Straße that operates within a converted event hall and presents theater productions, film screenings, music performances, and art exhibitions. The building has been adapted to host performances and displays across multiple artistic disciplines in one location.

Mason Carl Schmidt built a tavern here in 1874 and added a ballroom in 1876; the complex became Schloss Lindenfels in 1904 under Otto Besser. After the cinema closed in 1987, actors from Theaterhaus Jena found the vacant building in 1993 and reopened it on 15 September 1994 with Der Golem and a screening of Last Year at Marienbad.

The name Lindenfels comes from Otto Besser, who renamed the hall Schloss Lindenfels in 1904 and staged "Concert und Ball" every Friday and Sunday. Regulars included Wiglaf Droste, who read here, and Wladimir Kaminer, who hosted a Russendisko. The Green Salon upstairs now serves mainly as a program cinema.

The venue sits at Karl-Heine-Straße 50 at the corner of Hähnelstraße in Leipzig's western district; the historic ballroom, the upstairs Grüne Salon cinema and the foyer bar are all in the same building. The house is not wheelchair accessible, so plan accordingly. The restaurant in the foyer is leased to an independent restaurateur and is separate from the theatre and cinema programme.

Since 2005 the Schaubühne Lindenfels has operated as a gemeinnützige Aktiengesellschaft, a nonprofit stock corporation, making it the first theater house in Germany run in this legal form. Until 2015 three separate bodies handled theatre, cinema and catering under the name; since then the gAG itself runs the cinema and theatre, while the foyer restaurant is leased to a restaurateur.
