Dreese's Covered Bridge is a historic wooden covered bridge in Beaver Township, northeast of Beavertown, Pennsylvania, that spans Middle Creek. Built around 1870, the 95-foot bridge uses a burr arch-truss design associated with many of Pennsylvania's 19th-century covered bridges. After the road bypassed it in 1979, it was closed to vehicles and kept open only to pedestrians, a change that helped preserve it as a historic structure. Its significance within the state's covered-bridge heritage was recognized when it was added to the National Register of Historic Places on August 10, 1979, and later rehabilitated in 2001.
