Natchez Trace
Crossing the Highway
Crossing the highway here, this famous road followed ancient Indian trails used by the travelers between Natchez and Nashville. It was built in 1801 by Army Engineers.
Officially "The Columbian Road", it was for many years the only highway linking mid~Tennessee with the lower Mississippi.
Marker is on Waynesboro Highway just from Gower Road.
