Interior of Alamo, with modern roof; where final stand was made, photograph in Leonora Bennett's Historical Sketch and Guide to the Alamo, 1904.
The Alamo, originally a Spanish mission, was a fortress garrisoned first by the Spanish, then the Mexican Army after the Mexican War of Independence, and later, most famously, by Texian forces during the Texas Revolution. The chapel as pictured here was the site where the final Texian defenders, manning two 12-pounder cannons, were overwhelmed in the Battle of the Alamo.
