Event to Honor Those Who Died in 1836 Battle of the Alamo

The Alamo is hosting a 13-day event to honor those who gave their lives in the 1836 Battle of the Alamo.

The 2019 Alamo Siege & Battle Commemoration, from Saturday Feb. 23 to March 6, will have more than 30 events.

“Each day will have surprises for visitors, whether they witness a live reenactment of historical events like the arrival of the 32 men from Gonzales, a lecture with world-renowned historians, or live music at Fiddle Fest, they will leave with a deeper understanding and appreciation of the events that transpired those 13 days in 1836,” said Alamo CEO Douglass McDonald.

One of the events Thursday is a lecture with historians from the U.S. and Mexico. This will incude disccusions about how the people of Texas, Mexico and the U.S. combined to create a deeper understanding of the Texas Revolution. 

This event is free, but you must register beforehand.

For the events throughout the 13 days, some events are free, while others require tickets.
