Rudolf Lindau

Rudolf Lindau (10 October 1829 in Gardelegen, Saxony – 14 October 1910) was a German diplomat and author.

Rudolf Lindau was responsible for commanding the first Swiss delegation to Japan on 28 April 1859, along with Swiss Aimé Humbert-Droz (who was appointed the envoy plenipotentiary for the Swiss federal government).

His novels and tales were collected during 1893 (Berlin, 6 vols.). His works Reisegefährten and Der lange Holländer involve the lives of European residents in the Far East.
