The Battle of the Alamo was fought in 1836 at a former Spanish mission compound in San Antonio, Texas, during the Texas Revolution. A garrison of Texian and Tejano defenders under William B. Travis, James Bowie, and Davy Crockett held the walled mission for thirteen days against a Mexican army led by Antonio López de Santa Anna before falling on March 6. The defeat became a rallying point for Texan forces, whose cry of "Remember the Alamo" helped carry them to victory at San Jacinto later that year. Images of the mission, like this one, have since shaped how Americans remember the siege.
