What is hall covered bridge?

The Hall Covered Bridge is a historic wooden covered bridge located in northern Montgomery County, in the state of Ohio, USA. It crosses over the Great Miami River near the town of Piqua. The bridge was designed by architects Charles C. Brandt and Oscar M. Eldred and built in 1874. It was named after a nearby town called "Halltown", which is now the site of the Piqua Country Club.

The Hall Covered Bridge is 128 feet (39 meters) long and 20 feet (6 meters) wide. The structure includes a single-span Burr-arch truss, which is supported by stone abutments and piers. The bridge is built entirely of wood, including the siding, roof, and flooring. It is one of only a few covered bridges in Ohio that features a metal roof.

Throughout its history, the Hall Covered Bridge has been subjected to floods, storms, and even arson. It has undergone several restorations, including a major one in the 1960s, when the bridge was renovated and moved a short distance upstream to avoid risk of collapse.

Today, the Hall Covered Bridge is a popular tourist attraction and a significant part of Ohio's historic covered bridge collection. The bridge offers scenic views of the Great Miami River and the surrounding countryside. It is also a popular spot for photography, picnics, and fishing.
