Sewanee Natural Bridge in Franklin County, Tennessee, is a 25feet high natural sandstone arch with a span of 50feet. It is essentially a giant sinkhole partially eroded to form a large stone bridge. A wet weather spring located behind the bridge in a rock cave probably contributed to the erosion forming the arch. It is called the Sewanee Natural Bridge as it was once owned by the University of the South in Sewanee, Tennessee. It is a 3acres designated state natural area.
The natural area is accessed via Highway Alt. 41. In Sewanee turn south onto Highway 56 and proceed 2.5miles to Natural Bridge Road. Turn left onto Natural Bridge Road and proceed NaNmiles to the parking area.
The Silver Jews named their album The Natural Bridge after it.
