Welcome to the Bucks County
Covered Bridge Society! Thank you for visiting our web site!
The Bucks County Covered Bridge Society was formed in 2007 with
the following mission:
“The
mission of the Bucks County Covered Bridge Society is to
preserve, protect and promote the care of Bucks County’s
Historic covered bridges as a significant part of our area’s
history, culture and development.”
We hope that you will join us in
our effort to preserve, protect and promote the historic covered
bridges of Bucks County. Once the home of more than 50 covered
bridges, Bucks County has lost many of these historic treasures
over the years, as a result of flooding, neglect, progress,
development, and arson. Today, only 12 covered bridges remain
standing in Bucks County.
Whatever your background or
interests, there is something about covered bridges you will
find fascinating. Whether you are a history buff, artist,
photographer, craftsman, outdoor enthusiast, or just love to
gaze at beautiful things, the covered bridges of Bucks County
will hold an unmistakable charm and appeal.
We hope you enjoy our web site,
and we invite you to explore all of the pages.
