Wolf Covered Bridge in Knox County, IL


The old bridge


The rebuilt bridge

"The Wolf Covered Bridge was built in the 1840s. Originally, it just had a wooden deck. The cover was added in 1874. The structure was 234 feet in length and had a span of 102 feet. It was 11 feet wide, leaving room for just one lane of traffic.

"On Aug. 1, 1994, the bridge was destroyed by fire.

"The new bridge was completed in September 1999 and a grand opening ceremony was held on Sept. 25."

More about the bridge found here.
