The Goliad Massacre, set in the town of Goliad on March 27, 1836, was a killing of Republic of Texas soldier-prisoners and their commander, James Fannin, during the Texas Revolution by the Mexican Army under orders from General and President of Mexico Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna.
Although Fannin and the battle of the Texas Revolution did much to secure Goliad in public memory, the place has a longer history as one of the earliest European settlements in Texas. The Goliad State Park and Historic Site preserves the mission complex of La BahÃ­a that had been so important as San Antonioâs link to the Gulf of Mexico.
