Ebenezer Covered Bridge

The Ebenezer Covered Bridge is a red wooden structure with side windows set within a traditional timber frame design. The structure crosses a creek bed in the park and displays the craftsmanship typical of 19th-century bridge builders.

The structure was originally built elsewhere and relocated to the park in 1977 to make room for a highway expansion. During the move, it received steel reinforcement and new wooden decking to extend its life.

Pennsylvania maintains 213 covered bridges, with Ebenezer representing the traditional queenpost truss design that characterizes early American transportation infrastructure.

Access is through a large parking area at the county park near the western entrance to the grounds. The location is easy to find and the area is open to visitors without restrictions.

The bridge shares the park with another historic wooden bridge, creating a rare setting where visitors can see two preserved examples side by side. This pairing makes it one of few locations where such direct comparison is possible.
