What is your favorite historical spot in the community?
Constructed in 1885, the Hanover Historical Bridge is the third oldest in Minnesota, according to the Hanover Historical Society website. The bridge spans over the Crow River between Wright and Hennepin counties. "Once the bridge linked the Hennepin and Wright County sides, quicker travel was possible," according to the Hanover Historical Society website. "In 1909 a new stagecoach line from Rockford to Osseo via Burschville was created utilizing the bridge route." The Hanover Bridge was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979, according to the Minnesota Historical Society.
