General Santa Anna laid siege to San Antonio in late 1835 as part of the Texas Revolution. He led a well-equipped Mexican army to retake the city after Texan forces had captured it earlier. The siege culminated in the Battle of the Alamo in early 1836, where he ordered his troops to bombard the fortification, ultimately leading to the fall of the Alamo on March 6, 1836. This brutal assault became a rallying cry for Texan independence, encapsulated in the phrase "Remember the Alamo!"
Thirteen days.
The Mexicans, led by General Santa Anna, laid siege to the Alamo on February 23, 1836, and the battle concluded with their victory on March 6, 1836. The siege lasted for approximately 13 days. The defenders of the Alamo fought bravely but were ultimately overwhelmed by the Mexican forces, resulting in heavy casualties for both sides.
The Alamo siege and battle was real. The movie is only loosely based on facts. It is true, though, that Mexican General Santa Anna killed all of the Texas defenders that he could, even after he had won that particular battle.
