Astoria is a historic port city located at the mouth of the Columbia River in northwestern Oregon. Founded in 1811, it holds the distinction of being the first permanent American settlement west of the Rocky Mountains. The city's rich maritime heritage is deeply woven into its cultural fabric, reflected in its architecture, museums, and daily life.
Named after John Jacob Astor, an American fur trader and investor, Astoria developed as a significant fishing and lumber port in the 19th and early 20th centuries. The city's landscape is characterized by Victorian-era homes perched on hills overlooking the Columbia River, while its downtown area features well-preserved historic buildings.
Today, Astoria maintains its working waterfront while embracing arts, culture, and heritage tourism. The city's unique geography and history have made it a notable location for various film productions, including "The Goonies" and "Kindergarten Cop."
