The Auchumpkee Covered Bridge, located in the southeastern part of Upson County, is an exact replica of the 1892 bridge that was destroyed when floods swept through the state in 1994. Federal disaster relief money paid for premier covered-bridge craftsman Arnold M. Graton to reconstruct the bridge in much the same manner as it was first built in 1892.
