      <description>In reality, the chapel of the Alamo was much further back then what you saw in the movie. In fact, it didn't even border &quot;Alamo Square&quot;, the large area of land in the middle of the surrounding buildings and walls. Instead, it had its own little square courtyard in front of it, and a small wall leading to the chapel's courtyard bordered &quot;Alamo Square&quot;. In other words, the chapel itself was about 30 to 40 feet behind the rest of the walls and buildings.</description>
