Kutz’s Mill Bridge, located in Kutztown, Pennsylvania, is a historic covered bridge constructed in 1854. This well-preserved structure features the iconic Burr arch truss design, a popular 19th-century engineering method that combines an arch with a multiple kingpost truss for added strength and durability.
Still open to traffic today, the bridge continues to serve its original purpose after more than 170 years. The weathered wooden siding and shaded interior offer a glimpse into Pennsylvania’s rich covered bridge heritage.
Visiting Tips: Early morning provides soft lighting ideal for photography. Approach slowly if driving through, and consider parking nearby to walk through and appreciate the timber craftsmanship. Fall foliage creates a particularly scenic backdrop.
