The Camelback Bridge is a restored historic wooden bridge that arches over the Constitution Trail in Normal, Illinois. It is on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places. The bridge's main span is a wooden kingpost pony truss. The bridge is supported by Phoenix columns, a type of wrought iron column that was patented by the Phoenix Iron Company in 1862. It is one of only two bridges in Illinois using the columns.{{cite web|last=Howard|first=Jeanne|title=National Register of Historic Places Registration Form: Camelback Bridge|url=http://gis.hpa.state.il.us/pdfs/201083.pdf|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140108235624/http://gis.hpa.state.il.us/pdfs/201083.pdf|url-status=dead|archive-date=2014-01-08|publisher=National Park Service|access-date=January 8, 2014|date=December 1996}}
