About this property

The Swartz Creek Bridge on Aetna Springs Road, in Napa County, California near Aetna Springs, California was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2005. It is a single-span masonry arch bridge built in 1912. It has an earth-filled closed spandrel masonry arch, and is built of square cut stone in irregular courses.

Buckman and was built by A.C. Martini, one of many masonry arch bridges built in the county in the late 1800s and early 1900s which survive today, due to the design efforts of Buckman and the availability of high quality stone and skilled stonemasons.
