Yes, they did, as a matter of fact, although there are conspiracy theories that they did not. The first moon landing was Apollo 11 on July 19, 1969 (first walk on July 20).
Almost everyone alive when this occurred had no doubt accepting its reality, as only later were the "special effects" developed that would have made it possible to (partially) fake.
FX Then and Now
Even the technology of today is still not up to the job of faking that type of footage. For example, creating long stretches of low-gravity LRV footage without it looking "faked". The technology of the time? Take a look at footage of the 1960's by Disney, Gerry Anderson, and Stanley Kubrick. Not even the combined brains of every effects house in the world could have turned out such footage. Someone made a "mockumentary" about Kubrick faking it. The hoax buffs completely spaced out on it being a phony. There being no wire-removal technology at the time, the only way Kubrick could hide wires was to film his actors from underneath so their own bodies hid the wire. You want to try that on a 4-hour moonwalk, or a 17-mile Lunar Rover ride? Better still, look at the state-of-the-art lunar effects on "Superman II", filmed a decade after Apollo and with (obviously) better FX than were available in the Sixties. Even this was totally lame.
