Wehr Mill Covered Bridge Coffee Mug by almedic104

Wehr’s Bridge is located at the western end of Covered Bridge Park, where it crosses over the Jordan Creek. In 1862 Ephraim Sieger built a stone gristmill on the north bank of the Jordan, and the bridge became known as Sieger’s Covered Bridge. After several owners, the mill was sold to William Wehr, and the bridge eventually was named Wehr’s Covered Bridge. The present concrete dam near the bridge that supplied power for the gristmill was built in 1904 and replaced the original wooden dam located a short distance upstream. The mill was torn down in 1951, and today locals refer to the general area surrounding the bridge as “Wehr’s Dam”. Wehr’s Bridge, which was built in the Burr arch truss design, shares its claim to antiquity with Bogert’s Bridge. Families enjoy picnicking and quiet recreation in the nearby park, and the Jordan is a popular trout stream at this point. With its scenic setting Wehr’s Bridge is a favorite with photographers and artists, and often is used as the background for wedding photos.
