Visitors have asked daily about the basement at the Alamo thanks to the 1985 movie “Pee-wee’s Big Adventure.” We're grateful for Paul Reubens' unforgettable contribution to pop culture. There is no basement in the Alamo Church, but there is one under our gift shop! Rest in peace.

We at the Alamo are saddened to hear of the passing of legendary musician Ozzy Osbourne. His relationship with the Alamo was marked initially by a deeply disrespectful incident in 1982. This act profoundly and rightfully upset many who hold this site sacred.

We’ll never stop thanking Phil Collins for his incredible gift of over 430 historic artifacts to the people of Texas. You can now view the Collins Collection at the Ralston Family Collection Center, just behind the Alamo Church. Please come back and visit us soon, Mr. Collins.

This week in 2014, Phil Collins donated his vast personal collection of artefacts from the Battle of Alamo to the Texas General Land Office - which can be viewed at The Alamo museum. Phil was also recognised as an honorary Texan in the Senate for his contribution! 📸 Rick Kern

To honor those lost and still missing after the devastating Hill Country flooding, a wreath reading Hill Country Strong now rests in front of the Alamo Church. We stand with grieving families, those still awaiting news, and all working toward healing and recovery.
