Built in 1813, the Casselman Bridge spans 80 feet and was a marvel of engineering in its time, facilitating travel along the National Road.
The bridge was part of the National Road, the first major improved highway in the U.S., which helped settlers move westward in the early 19th century.
Designated in 1964, it is recognized for its historical significance in transportation and engineering.
The picturesque setting of the bridge and surrounding nature has inspired many artists and photographers over the years.
To accommodate increasing traffic, a new bridge was built nearby, preserving the historic bridge for pedestrian use.
