Gianella Bridge, Historic swing bridge in Hamilton City, United States
The Gianella Bridge spans the Sacramento River, connecting Glenn County and Butte County through a steel and concrete construction with Pratt trusses.
Built between 1908 and 1911 by Cotton Brothers & Co, the bridge received recognition on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.
The bridge location emerged from negotiations between Glenn County and Butte County, with Vincenzo Gianella mediating the final placement decision.
The structure served vehicle traffic along California State Highway 32 until 1987, when it was removed due to structural conditions.
Engineer John B Leonard designed this bridge as the first highway swing bridge in California, allowing boat passage on the Sacramento River.
