Virginia’s Covered Bridges
Visit the six covered bridges in Virginia, five of which are now preserved as landmarks on public property. The Marysville Bridge was destroyed by a flood in 1996 and no longer exists, so there is no actual bridge to visit. Select a bridge for directions to each site along with a description of the bridge, its history, and an enlarged color photo.
