The Siege of the Alamo Began

February 10, 2022

February 23rd, 1836: The siege of the Alamo Mission began. The thirteen-day siege was a turning-point in the Texas Revolution. Although most Texans who were occupying the Alamo Mission were killed in the eventual attack, the loss of life inspired other Texans to join the revolution and eventually gain independence.
