Linden is a station on the Chicago Transit Authority's 'L' system, on the Purple Line at 349 Linden Avenue in Wilmette, Illinois (directional coordinates 500 north, 400 west). It is the northern terminus of the Purple Line, and the most northern 'L' station in the CTA system. Linden is the only 'L' stop in Wilmette. The stop is only a few blocks away from the Bahá'í House of Worship.

The station has existed since 1912, and was rebuilt in 1993. It is the only station on the Purple Line to be at ground level, decending from the elevated embankment shortly after crossing the North Shore Channel and entering Wilmette.
