Ceylon Covered Bridge, Covered bridge in Adams County, Indiana, United States

The Ceylon Covered Bridge is a 130-foot (40 m) wooden truss bridge carrying a road over the Wabash River in Wabash Township, Adams County, Indiana. Built in 1879 by the Smith Bridge Company of Toledo, Ohio, it has a roof and siding that enclose the timber truss. It is the only remaining covered bridge over the Wabash.

The bridge was built in 1879 by the Smith Bridge Company from Toledo, Ohio, a firm specializing in wooden truss structures of that era. It remains a rare example of rural Indiana's transportation infrastructure from the early period of industrialization.

The bridge carries Ceylon Road over the Wabash River in Wabash Township, Adams County, and is still crossed by local traffic rather than kept as a display piece. Its name comes from the nearby community of Ceylon. The Smith Bridge Company of Toledo, Ohio, built it in 1879, and the Historic American Engineering Record documented the span with six measured drawings.

The bridge carries County Road 300 South over the Wabash River in Wabash Township, Adams County, Indiana, near the unincorporated community of Ceylon. It is a road bridge, so visitors should watch for traffic when crossing on foot. The 130-foot truss span can be viewed from the road approaches at either end.

This bridge remains the only surviving covered bridge spanning the entire Wabash River, while other similar structures disappeared over the decades. This rare status makes it a valuable witness to a building method that is otherwise documented mainly in museums.
