In this Transit Unplugged TV special, host Paul Comfort gets an inside tour of the Alamo with Ernesto Rodriguez, III — the curator and historian who has been telling the stories of the Alamo since 1999.
The Alamo goes way deeper than the famous facade. Artifacts from the 13-day siege of 1836 bring the stories of legendary defenders like David Crockett, James Bowie, and William Barrett Travis to life like never before. You'll also get up close with a legendary Bowie knife collection, a John Wayne movie poster, and hear about Phil Collins' unexpected connection to the Alamo.
With a brand-new museum set to open in 2028 and visitation expected to reach 2.5 million guests a year, the Alamo is more alive than ever. Come see why Texans still say, “Remember the Alamo.”
