Mount Orne Covered Bridge
Mount Orne Covered Bridge, Historical covered bridge in Lancaster, United States.
Mount Orne Covered Bridge is a wooden road bridge that spans the Connecticut River, connecting Lancaster in New Hampshire with Lunenburg in Vermont. The structure displays classic Howe truss construction and features a metal roof for protection.
This bridge was built in 1911 after an earlier structure was destroyed by flooding in 1905. The new construction aimed to provide a reliable crossing between the two states.
The bridge represents New England's engineering heritage, serving as one of two remaining Howe truss bridges spanning the Connecticut River.
The bridge is jointly maintained by local authorities from both states, so visitors may encounter maintenance work at times. The roadway is narrow, so use caution when crossing in a vehicle.
In 1969 a salt truck broke through the bridge deck while crossing and fell onto the frozen river below. This incident highlighted how important regular inspections are for safety.
