History

While the Gateway Arch in St. Louis, Missouri, is referred to as the Gateway to the West because of its position along the vital Mississippi River, the first true gateway westward for Americans was the Cumberland Gap. This natural break in the Cumberland Mountains was traversed by indigenous tribes for hundreds of years between the Atlantic Seaboard and the central plains of the continent. Americans and Europeans exploited this opening to move westward into the Ohio Valley and beyond to the plains of the Midwest as the nation began to expand in the 19^th century.
