Linden High School was a high school building at 344 East Main Street in Linden, Wisconsin. The school was built in 1913 to replace Linden's 1882 school building, a wooden structure which had burned down earlier that year. Architect Hans T. Liebert gave the two-story brick school a German-inspired design; Liebert's brother Eugene designed the Germania Building in Milwaukee in 1896, and the school's design borrowed elements from the earlier building, notably the columns flanking the entrance. Liebert's design also included a curved parapet above the entrance, limestone ornamentation, and a hip roof with two brick chimneys. Linden used the building continuously until 1960, when Iowa County's rural schools were consolidated and the Linden school closed.[1]
The school was added to the National Register of Historic Places on November 4, 1993. It was demolished in 1995.[2]
