On the east side of Alamo Plaza is the most famous spot in Texas where
189 defenders fell on March 6, 1836, after repeated attacks by Mexican
General Santa Anna’s army.
Mission San Antonio de Valero (The Alamo) was established in 1718 as the city’s first mission. The chapel, one of the most photographed facades in the nation, and the Long Barracks are all that remain of the original fort. Long Barracks Museum and Library are near the chapel. The museum contains relics and mementos from the Republic of Texas and offers narration on the fall of the Alamo. The Alamo is located in the heart of the city, inside beautifully landscaped grounds. |
