These 7 Beautiful Covered Bridges In Mississippi Will Remind You Of A Much Simpler Time

Covering on a bridge may serve several purposes, but one thing is for sure, there’s just something so special about a covered bridge. Although rare, Mississippi is (in some cases, has been) home to several covered bridges; here are 7 lovely examples.

1. Aside from being home to spring water that has been rated the “best in the United States,” Iuka’s Mineral Springs Park is the site of this picture-perfect covered bridge.

2. Brookhaven’s premier wedding venue, The Hideaway at Reed’s Estate, is filled with stunning photo-ops, including this rustic covered bridge.

3. Although it has since been replaced, this Lowndes County bridge was originally constructed in 1885.

4. This 54’ bridge is located in Carriere’s Covered Bridge Cove community.

5. Located in Tupelo’s James L. Ballard Park, this covered bridge may be small but it is big on charm.

6. Spanning 59’, this covered bridge is located on Don Burge Rd. in McNeill.

7. Photographed in the early 1900s, this covered bridge, which was one of several in Lafayette County, spanned the Yocona River.
