Kennedy Bridge is a historic covered bridge located in Kimberton, Pennsylvania, built in 1856. This well-preserved structure features a Burr truss design, a construction method combining an arch with a multiple kingpost truss that was popular throughout Pennsylvania in the mid-19th century.
The bridge remains open to traffic, allowing visitors to experience the authentic rumble of crossing its wooden planks. Its weathered exterior and pastoral Chester County surroundings make it a favorite among photographers.
Visiting Tips: Early morning offers soft light and minimal traffic for photography. Approach slowly when driving through—the single lane requires yielding to oncoming vehicles. Nearby Kimberton village provides charming shops and eateries to round out your visit. Autumn foliage creates particularly striking backdrops.
