The San Antonio landmark plays a key role in the film chronicling Pee-wee Herman’s search for his stolen bicycle when a devious fortuneteller tells him the bike is located in the Alamo’s basement. Pee-wee, played by the late Paul Reubens, learns the Alamo doesn’t have a basement, but hasn’t stopped tourists from tongue-in-cheek inquiries.

The bike will be permanently displayed in the future Alamo Visitor Center and Museum, opening in Fall 2027,” the museum shared on Instagram.

A beloved pop-culture artifact has been acquired by the Alamo and will live in its future visitor center to open in Fall 2027.
