Mahned Bridge, Iron truss bridge in Perry County, Mississippi, United States.

Mahned Bridge is an iron truss structure that spans about 335 feet across the Leaf River, combining two different engineering systems in its design. The structure uses Camelback and Pratt truss types, both engineered and built by a Chicago-based company that specialized in metal bridge construction.

The Mahned Bridge was built by the Chicago Bridge & Iron Company as a prefabricated, one-lane iron truss structure and completed in 1903, making it one of the first bridges to span the Leaf River in south Mississippi. It was removed from service around 1980, declared a Mississippi Landmark in 1996 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1997.

The bridge's name comes from the rural community of Mahned nearby, not from a person's reversed surname. The structure stands several miles from New Augusta, and its remote setting made it a gathering spot for college and high school students, who came for star gazing and other activities.

The bridge is not open to the public, as its wooden deck was removed and the structure has been closed since 1980. The best views of the iron framework come from the riverbanks, where you can see the truss system and engineering details from the outside.

The bridge's remote setting, several miles from New Augusta, made it a gathering spot for college and high school students stargazing. In September 1993, 17-year-old Angela Freeman's abandoned vehicle was found at the bridge; her disappearance was never solved. In May 1995 the north end was the scene of the abduction and murder of William Hatcher, 27, and Robbie Bond, 21; the suspect was later convicted.
