I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'texas mission' is the definition.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for alamo that I've seen before include "The answer is a place of siege" , "Historic Texas mission station" , "historical Franciscan mission" , "Mission building in Texas, site of famous siege by Mexico" , "US mission" .)
