Nestled in Millville, Pennsylvania, the Sam Eckman Covered Bridge has spanned its crossing since 1876, serving travelers for nearly 150 years. This historic structure features a distinctive covered Warren truss design—a relatively uncommon configuration for Pennsylvania covered bridges, which typically used Burr arch trusses.

The bridge remains open to traffic today, allowing visitors to experience an authentic crossing just as travelers did in the 19th century. Its weathered wooden siding and rural setting make it a photographer’s dream.

Visiting Tips: Arrive during golden hour for the best lighting. The bridge photographs beautifully from the creek bank below. Drive through slowly to appreciate the interior timber work, but watch for oncoming vehicles on this active roadway.
