The scene in "The Alamo" with John Wayne admiring a large tree was filmed at the actual Alamo Mission in San Antonio, Texas. The tree in question is known as the "Wishing Tree" and it is still standing in the Alamo courtyard today. The tree holds historical significance as it is believed that soldiers stationed at the Alamo during the famous battle would touch or lean against it for good luck before going into battle.
The Alamo was released October 24th, 1960

There was a recreation of the Alamo and a small version of the town of San Antonio built on the Happy Shahan Ranch whish is about 9 miles north of Bracketsville Texas on the road that goes to another town called Rock Springs. Bracketsville is also the home of the real Fort Clark and has been used for other movie sets. Most of the scenes of the Alamo were filmed on this Alamo recreation and it can still be toured today. Most of the actors stayed in Del Rio hotels during filming.
