An archaeological dig will take place at the Alamo over the next several weeks amid a major makeover of the plaza.
The Alamo Trust, Inc. Archaeology, the City of San Antonio and the Texas Historical Commission started the dig southwest of the Alamo Church on Monday.
The excavation work is slated to take six weeks as archaeologists work on about 7,500 square feet of land. The work will not impact visits to the site, and a 6-foot fence will be placed for safety.
The makeover includes a new 24,000-square-foot Alamo Collections Center that will open in March and an Alamo Visitor Center and Museum that will open in 2026.
