Built in 1869, the Dreibelbis Station Bridge stands as one of Pennsylvania’s enduring covered bridge treasures near Lenhartsville. This historic structure features the classic Burr arch truss design—a combination of a wooden arch and multiple kingpost trusses that provided exceptional strength for 19th-century engineering.
The bridge remains open to traffic today, carrying vehicles across Maiden Creek as it has for over 150 years. Its weathered red siding and portal design make it a quintessential example of Pennsylvania Dutch Country craftsmanship.
Visiting Tips: Early morning offers the best photography light with minimal traffic. The surrounding Berks County countryside provides a scenic backdrop, especially during fall foliage season. Approach slowly—the single lane requires yielding to oncoming vehicles.
