Lehman’s, Port Royal Covered Bridge

Lehman’s, Port Royal Covered Bridge

Port Royal County, Pennsylvania

Spanning the Tuscarora Creek in Port Royal, Pennsylvania, this historic covered bridge dates to 1888. The structure features a double Burr arch truss design—a popular 19th-century engineering approach combining wooden arches with multiple kingpost trusses for enhanced load capacity.

The bridge remains open to traffic, allowing visitors to drive through and experience its enclosed wooden interior. The weathered red siding and white portals make for striking photographs, especially during autumn foliage or after a fresh snowfall.

Visiting Tips: Park safely off-road before walking through. Early morning offers soft light and minimal traffic. The nearby town of Port Royal provides a quiet rural Pennsylvania backdrop worth exploring.
