The Alamo
The Alamo is the former Mission San Antonio de Valero, founded by Spanish Franciscans in 1718, whose limestone church and Long Barrack stand on Alamo Plaza downtown. In 1836 it was the site of the Battle of the Alamo in the Texas Revolution, in which its defenders were killed. Visitors enter the church, walk the grounds and see exhibits of the period.
