Originally a Spanish mission, it became a fortress where a small group of Texan defenders faced a large Mexican army. Despite being overwhelmed, the battle became a symbol of bravery and the fight for freedom. Today, the Alamo is a preserved monument and museum, representing Texas heritage, independence, and resilience.
