The Lewellen State Aid Bridge, near Lewellen, Nebraska, United States, is a historic Pratt pony truss bridge that was built in 1926. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.[2]

Along with the Lisco State Aid Bridge, it is one of two surviving multiple-span "State Aid" bridges in Nebraska, out of eight constructed. It has seven 100-foot-long "riveted Pratt ponies ... supported by 50-foot long, 8-inch Bethlehem H-piles, encased in concrete". It was built by low bidder on a contract let by Nebraska, for $71,300, during 1926–27.[1]
