Monsrud Bridge is a historic structure originally located northwest of Waterville, Iowa, United States. It spanned Paint Creek for 43 feet (13 m).[2] The King Iron Bridge Company of Cleveland fabricated and erected the Bowstring pony arch structure in 1887. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) in 1998.[1]

The bridge was replaced with a low water crossing and abandoned in place.[2] In 2004, it was moved to the Yellow River State Forest.[3] It was removed from the NRHP in 2022.[4]
