The Covered Bridge The covered bridge, north of Chester on Route 4, is one of the few of its kind remaining in the United States. A reminder of our past when horse and buggies were still a pan of ev- eryday life, the bridge, planked on a toll road between Chester and Bremen, has been pre- served with the original timber used in 1854. .• The Home of Pierre Menard The home of Illinois’ first lieutenant governor, Pierre Menard, was built out of wooden pegs by slave labor in 1802 in the French Provincial style. The house considered a mansion in k its day was built along the bank of the Kaskaskia River near Chester. Today, due to change of the river's course during the flood on the night of April 18, 1881, the house is now located on the bank of the Mississippi River. Since he was a Canadian, a special act of Congress allowed Menard to take office. Congress may have granted this permission because of his reputation. Although he was prosperous, he was friendly to everyone: the v Indian, the voyager, the fur trader, the rich and the poor.
