Johnson Covered Bridge No. 28

Johnson Covered Bridge No. 28

Catawissa County, Pennsylvania

Spanning Roaring Creek in Catawissa, Pennsylvania, this historic covered bridge has served travelers since 1882. Built using the distinctive Warren truss design—unusual for covered bridges of this era—it showcases the engineering experimentation of late 19th-century bridge builders.

The bridge remains open to traffic today, carrying vehicles across the creek as it has for over 140 years. Its weathered wooden exterior and pastoral setting make it a favorite among covered bridge enthusiasts.

Visiting Tips: Arrive during golden hour for optimal photography, when soft light illuminates the bridge’s entrance. Pull safely off the road before stopping. The surrounding countryside offers scenic views year-round, though fall foliage provides an especially striking backdrop.
