Linden Heritage Foundation

Linden Heritage Foundation Preserving the Architecture and Cultural Heritage of Linden, Texas. Linden is rich in natural and historic attributes.

The Linden Heritage Foundation is the sole non-governmental organization in central Cass County for the protection and promotion of cultural resources and for the adaptive use of historic sites designed as economic development tools. Founded 1848, it has a unique inventory of Public Works Administration era features, along with its surviving late 19th century and antebellum structures. The histori

c Cass County Courthouse located at the heart of the city was the base of the area’s Civil War preparations — early mustering, arming, provisioning as well as later widow/orphan relief activities. Linden’s boundaries comprise two vast land patents earned in the period of the Texas Republic. The broader history of the ground on which Linden is built reaches farther back to the period of Spanish exploration and to pre-historic eras when Native American societies flourished on the wooded and well-watered local landscape. Those tribes left behind many cultural objects and folk traditions – some of them still legible today through their descendants and other followers of tribal ways. A few of those traditions are so interwoven with present day lifeways that their original source is no longer recognized by the average resident. The Linden Heritage Foundation will work to make all these continuities better understood and appreciated.
