SOMETHING TO SEE IN EARLY OCTOBER, THE COVERED BRIDGES
OF FLEMING COUNTY, AND THE COVERED BRIDGE MUSEUM

Fleming County to Showcase Their Covered Bridges
and their museum at a gathering for Friday, October 3
The undisputable covered bridge capitol of Kentucky is found at Fleming County.
The landscape there features wide valleys with gentle, rolling acreage surrounding these big, beautiful valleys.
Fleming County is between Rowan County and Morehead at the southern side, and Maysville and Mason County
to the north side.
Ky 11 runs through Flemingsburg and northward to Maysville, while Ky 11 goes southward around nine miles
before the intersection with Ky 32 coming out of Morehead.
The Goddard Bridge can be seen 7 miles south of Flemingsburg on Route 11, right beside the road’s northbound
lane. This structure goes back to the 1820s, and was restored in 1968, and again this year in anticipation of the
the October 3 appreciation and history day.
Kentucky once had 11 covered bridges, with four of these originally located in Fleming County.
For more details about these grand old spans, please open our 2025 magazine by clicking the cover on the
home page and read the Fleming County ad on page 18 and the in-depth article on page 35.
