War Eagle Bridge, Historic steel truss bridge in Madison County, Arkansas.

The War Eagle Bridge stretches 182 feet across War Eagle Creek, featuring a distinctive Parker truss design with wooden planking and concrete abutments.

Built in 1907 by the Illinois Steel Bridge Company for $4,790, the structure replaced a ford that had served the area since the 1830s.

The bridge connects to War Eagle Mill, which produces organic flour and hosts one of the largest craft fairs in Arkansas each October.

Located on County Road 98, the single-lane bridge provides essential access to War Eagle Mill and remains active for vehicular traffic throughout the year.

This structure stands as the only Parker truss bridge in northwest Arkansas and represents one of seventeen remaining steel truss bridges in the state.
