The iconic building most Americans think of as The Alamo is not made of adobe. This building most Americans recognize as the Alamo is actually the church building and just one building among many in a 4.2 acre complex. The church and missionary's barracks and other buildings and walls in this part of the complex were constructed of limestone. The buildings would have had a stucco layer over the limestone exterior walls that has decomposed over the years. Other buildings in the complex such as storage rooms and barracks for Indian workers were made of adobe brick.
