The Roosevelt Arch is a historic landmark located at the north entrance of Yellowstone National Park. It was constructed in 1903 and dedicated by President Theodore Roosevelt as the ceremonial entrance to the park.
The arch is made of rough hewn stone and features two stone pillars with a large stone arch spanning between them. The arch is inscribed with the phrase "For the Benefit and Enjoyment of the People" which reflects the park's mission to preserve the natural beauty and wildlife of the area for the public to enjoy.
The Roosevelt Arch is not only a symbol of Yellowstone National Park, but also an iconic symbol of the American West. You can walk through the arch and take in the stunning mountain views and the wildlife that roam the area. You can learn more about the history of the arch and the park at the nearby Roosevelt Arch Visitor Center, which features exhibits and information about the park's natural and cultural history.
