Roseman Covered Bridge, Winterset, IA
We obviously couldn’t create a list like this without mentioning this one! The Roseman Covered Bridge can also be seen in the movie “The Bridges of Madison County” from the famed novel.
This covered bridge was built in 1883 and included in the National Register of Historic Places in 1976. The bridge is built over a land of less than one acre, and if you’re a Meryl Streep fan, you will definitely recognize it.
Robert Kincaid, a photographer, played by Clint Eastwood, seeks out this 107ft crossing, one of six countywide, while in town for an assignment.
And Francesca Johnson invites him to dinner by tacking a note on the bridge, igniting one of Hollywood’s most memorable love affairs.
