Added to Your Check-Ins. Davy Crockett at the Fall of the Alamo (1926) Focuses on Davy Crockett before & during his time at the Alamo as one of the defenders, and ultimately, one of those who gave their lives.
Of the present Alamo building, probably only the bottom 23 feet of wall are part of the original. The Alamo changed hands at least 16 times among Spanish, Mexican, Texan, Union and Confederate forces between 1810 and the end of the Civil War. During the early 1840s, stones from the Alamo were hauled away by scavengers.
