Presidio San Antonio de Béxar was a Spanish fort built near the San Antonio River, located in what is now San Antonio, Texas, USA. It was designed for protection of the mission system and civil settlement in central Texas. It also served to secure Spain's claim to the region from French, English and American aggression. It was built by Franciscan priest Antonio de Olivares and the Payaya; and along with the Misión de San Antonio de Valero (the Alamo) and the Acequia Madre de Valero, is the origin of the present city of San Antonio, Texas.EstablishmentFrom the Convent of Querétaro, several expeditions were organized to the region of Texas, an area of great strategic importance to the Spanish crown. With that goal in 1675, an expedition formed by Fray Antonio de Olivares, Fray Francisco Hidalgo, Fray Juan Larios, and Fernando del Bosque was sent to explore and describe the country beyond the borders of Rio Grande, to test the possibilities of new settlements in the area.

Le siège de Fort Alamo fut un événement majeur de la Révolution texane. Après un siège de 13 jours, les troupes mexicaines commandées par le général Antonio López de Santa Anna lancèrent un assaut contre la mission Alamo près de San Antonio de Bexar . Tous les défenseurs texans furent tués et la cruauté apparente de Santa Anna pendant la bataille poussa de nombreux colons et aventuriers américains à rejoindre l'armée texane. Poussés par l'envie de prendre leur revanche, les Texans battirent l'armée mexicaine à la bataille de San Jacinto le 21 avril 1836 qui mit fin à la Révolution.Plusieurs mois auparavant, les Texans avaient chassé les troupes mexicaines hors du Texas alors partie de l'état de Cohuila y Texas et environ 100 soldats furent placés en garnison dans l'Alamo. L'unité fut renforcée par une unité menée par les futurs commandants du fort, James Bowie et William B. Travis. Le 23 février, environ soldats mexicains arrivèrent à San Antonio de Béxar avec l'objectif de reprendre le Texas. Durant douze jours, les deux forces s'affrontèrent lors de plusieurs escarmouches. Conscient que sa garnison ne pourrait pas résister à une attaque de grande ampleur, Travis écrivit plusieurs lettres pour demander des renforts mais moins de cent hommes le rejoignirent.

De Alamo is de belangrijkste gebeurtenis tijdens de Texaanse Onafhankelijkheidsoorlog. De Alamo was eigenlijk een katholiek missiegebouw in San Antonio, het centrum van de Texaanse Onafhankelijkheidsbeweging. De Texaanse Onafhankelijkheidsoorlog was een militair conflict tussen Mexico en rebellen die voor onafhankelijkheid van Texas vochten, destijds onderdeel van de Mexicaanse staat Coahuila y Texas. De oorlog eindigde met de onafhankelijkheid van de Republiek Texas.Op 23 februari 1836 overviel de Mexicaanse generaal Antonio López de Santa Anna met 5000 soldaten het stadsgarnizoen waar slechts 180 tot 200 Texaanse strijders waren gelegerd. Onder hen ook de kolonisten Davy Crockett en Jim Bowie. De beperkte groep Texanen trok zich terug in de Alamo. Ze zouden zich niet overgeven en de belegering zou tot 6 maart duren. De Texanen geraakten zonder munitie en werden daarop door de Mexicanen bestormd. Alle mannen werden gedood.Rond de Alamo bestaan veel legendes, waarvan de waarheid vaak hoogst dubieus is. Zo zou Davy Crockett zich tot het laatste moment hebben verdedigd tot de dood erop volgde. Er is echter een dagboek van een Mexicaanse officier gevonden die dit tegenspreekt. Crockett zou in werkelijkheid gevangen zijn genomen en ter dood zijn gebracht. Verder zou William Travis een lijn in het zand getrokken hebben. Degenen die de Alamo wilden blijven verdedigen, dus hoogstwaarschijnlijk zouden sterven, moesten de lijn oversteken. Alle verdedigers, op de Franse veteraan Louis Rose na, zouden de lijn hebben overgestoken. Louis dook bij een familie onder, die later een verslag, waarvan ze beweerden dat het van Roses hand was, publiceerde. Volgens weer een andere legende liet Santa Anna, alvorens het vuur te laten openen, elke avond de degüello spelen, een muziekstuk dat de Spanjaarden in de strijd tegen de Moren speelden om aan te geven dat iedereen zou worden gedood.
