Today we went to the Alamo with Pop Pop. It is located right in the middle of the city and is a shrine for those who lost their lives in the battle.
The Battle of the Alamo took place February 23 – March 6, 1836. It was a pivotal event in the Texas Revolution. After Mexican troops killed the Texan troops at the Alamo, many settlers decided to join the Army and fight back. They were able to defeat the Mexican Army on April 21, 1836 and end the revolution.
