Nestled in Meiserville, Pennsylvania, the Aline Covered Bridge has spanned its crossing since 1884. This historic structure features a Burr truss arch design—a construction method combining a multiple kingpost truss with a reinforcing arch, popular throughout Pennsylvania’s covered bridge heritage.
The bridge remains open to traffic, allowing visitors to experience a genuine crossing rather than just a viewing. Its weathered wooden exterior and shaded interior make for compelling photographs, especially during autumn foliage or early morning light when traffic is minimal.
Visitor Tips: Arrive early for unobstructed photos. Pull safely off the road before stopping. The interior offers interesting shadow patterns midday. Check seasonal road conditions before visiting.
