No, the Golden Gate Bridge was not destroyed in the 1906 earthquake because it had not yet been built. Construction of the bridge began in 1933 and was completed in 1937, long after the earthquake occurred. The bridge is often associated with the earthquake's impact on San Francisco, but it was not affected since it did not exist at that time.
Is the Golden Gate Bridge a natural formation or was it man made?
The "Golden Gate" is a natural formation composed of rocks, vegetation, and the sea. It was named a long, long time ago by mariners sailing into San Francisco harbor. The rocks on either side of the bay entrance were orange-gold in color, and seemed almost mystical when the setting sun shone on them. Much, much later, engineers designed and built a bridge across the bay at that same location to connect San Francisco and Sausalito. It was the bridge over the Golden Gate, so of course it was named the, "Golden Gate Bridge". It is a titanic structure built of steel, concrete, and paint, of course.
