Hassenplug Bridge is a historic wooden covered bridge at Mifflinburg, Union County, Pennsylvania. It is an 80-foot-long (24 m), Burr Truss bridge, constructed in 1825, and overhauled in 1959. It crosses Buffalo Creek.
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980 and is the oldest covered bridge in the United States. However, this distinction is also claimed for the Hyde Hall Bridge in New York.
