New Brownsville Bridge at Mill Race Park

1840 (relocated to Mill Race Park)

Covered Bridge at Mill Race Park

Built in 1840, the New Brownsville Covered Bridge is Indiana’s only surviving long-truss bridge. Originally spanning the East Fork of the Whitewater River, the bridge was later relocated to Mill Race Park, where it now serves as both a historic landmark and a focal point of Michael Van Valkenburgh’s award-winning park design. Its weathered timbers stand as a reminder of Indiana’s transportation heritage while providing a beloved backdrop for community life.
