Germantown Covered Bridge


Restored in 1963, the Germantown Covered Bridge on E. Center St., spanning Little Twin Creek, was 93 years old and is reported to be the only existing covered bridge of it's kind in the world! For 41 years this unique inverted bow string truss covered bridge spanned Little Twin Creek on the Dayton Pike in Germantown, Ohio. In 1911 it was removed to it's present location where it has been restored and beautified as a link with Ohio's early history. It is a symbol of individual initiative in America's pioneer days. The landscaping is watered & maintained by the Twin Valley Heritage Foundation of Germantown.
