Lindeck - 13. stoletje
Grad se prvic omenja leta 1264 kot Lindecke, leta 1333 kot castrum Lindekk, leta 1335 kot Lindek, leta 143 kot Lyndekg in leta 1441 kot haus Lindegk. Ime je povzeto po lipi, nem. die Linde, ki jo srecamo stilizirano tudi v lindeškem grbu. Lindeški vitezi nastopajo od leta 1258 dalje in jih srecujemo na gradu vse do srede 16. stoletja. Zadnji je na gradu do leta 1758 prebival Franc Wolf.
Cesta, ki se odcepi od magistralne ceste in vodi desno mimo kamnoloma strmo v hrib, nas po južnem pobocju Stenice pripelje v neposredno bližino gradu, do Grajskega hriba. Do samega grajskega jedra je potrebnih le nekaj minut hoje. Vcasih je pravo pot do grajskih razvalin kar težko najti, zato so smernice domacinov vedno še kako dobrodošle.
Parkirajte na N46°21,428 E015°19,447.

Grad Lindek v svoji pesmi omenja tudi pesnik Jurij Vodovnik.
