The 1873 Trostletown Covered Bridge, also known as Kantner Bridge, crosses Stony Creek in Quemahoning Township in Stoystown Lions Club Park in Somerset County, Pennsylvania. The bridge has a triple-span King Post Truss modified with the addition of tension rods.

Trostletown Bridge is 104 feet long and 12 feet wide; it is in fair condition. The bridge is supposed to be opened to foot traffic, but it would be difficult to cross it with all the equipment stored inside. Trostletown was taken over in 1965 by the Stoystown Lions Club which undertook the job of restoring and preserving the bridge.

Total length:  104 feet
Deck width:  12.5 feet

Of the 1,500 covered bridges that once stood in the state of Pennsylvania, as of 2019, approximately 200 remain.

Trostletown Bridge was posted to the National Register of Historic Places on December 11, 1980.
