Lindenberg Island is a circular volcanic island 1 kilometre (0.5 nmi) in diameter, lying 20 kilometres (11 nmi) north of Robertson Island and some 60 kilometres (35 nmi) east-northeast of Cape Fairweather, off the east coast of the Antarctic Peninsula. It was discovered by a Norwegian whaling expedition under C.A. Larsen in December 1893, and was named by Larsen for a member of the firm of Woltereck and Robertson of Hamburg which sent him to the Antarctic.
