Though not as historic as the Alamo church, this center is just as fun. The collection is full of information including a miniature replica of the Alamo, followed by a presentation that explains the timeline of the battle of the Alamo. Some of the artifacts in the collection include a two hundred year old Spanish Canon, a Mexican officer's hat, the sword of Sam Houston, sword of Santa Ana, and Davy Crockett's Kentucky rifle. A must visit if you purchased tickets.

Worth the $14 adult entrance. Learn even more about the history of the Alamo, see collections (by Phil Collins - yes, the singer), and more.

Just too much to mention. For a measly $14 ticket you should...

I can not get over the wealth of collectible items that are on display and the amount of care taken to preserve these Alamo battle-era items. The price of admission is worth the must-see collectible items that have been donated to the Alamo by Phil Collins, the Yena family, and many other collectors. Saludos...
