The National Road in Pennsylvania serves as a historical tapestry, tracing its origins from Native American trails to a pivotal military roadway. Established in the early 1800s, it was the first federally constructed road in the U.S., facilitating westward expansion. Along its ninety-mile stretch, significant sites include the first cast-iron bridge, historic taverns, and remnants of the Whiskey Rebellion. Today recognized as a National Scenic Byway, the road showcases vital landmarks and memorials that reflect America's rich history and development.
