This historic covered bridge in New Baltimore, Pennsylvania, dates back to 1879, making it nearly 150 years old. The structure features a queenpost truss design, a traditional timber framing method that uses two vertical posts to distribute weight—common in shorter covered bridges of the era.

Current Status: The bridge is permanently closed to all traffic and pedestrians. Visitors can view and photograph it from the roadside but cannot cross.

Visiting Tips: Park safely off the road and capture the bridge from multiple angles. Morning light often provides the best photography conditions. The weathered exterior tells the story of its age, making it a compelling subject for history enthusiasts and photographers documenting Pennsylvania’s covered bridge heritage.
