The Washington Mill Bridge is a road bridge crossing Lytle Creek near Bernard, Iowa that was built in 1877–78. It is a bowstring, through arch bridge, manufactured and built by the Massillon Bridge Company.[1]

The bridge is significant for its engineering. Its span is 113 feet (34 m) and it cost $2,589. As of 1994, the bridge's setting was relatively unchanged since the bridge's construction more than 100 years before.[2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1998.[1]
