List of covered bridges in Wisconsin

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Below is a list of covered bridges in Wisconsin. There are five authentic covered bridges in the U.S. state of Wisconsin; only one of them is historic.^[1] A covered bridge is considered authentic not due to its age, but by its construction. An authentic bridge is constructed using trusses rather than other methods such as stringers, a popular choice for non-authentic covered bridges.
