Located in San Antonio, Texas, it was the site of the Battle of the Alamo in 1836, one of the most pivotal events in Texas’ struggle for independence from Mexico. Today, it stands as a museum and is an emblem of valor and sacrifice, drawing millions of visitors each year who come to pay homage to the 189 Texan defenders who stood bravely against Santa Anna's forces.
