The Action of Atlixco, also known as the "Atlixco Affair", on October 19, 1847, was a U.S. victory late in the Mexican-American War by an American force under General Joseph Lane that defeated the Light Corps of the Mexican Army under General Joaquín Rea and captured their base at Atlixco a week after Lane had driven Rea from his lines and relieved the Siege of Puebla.
During the Mexican American War the site of the town was open country, and the location of the Affair at Galaxara Pass a battle between the Mexican Light Corps under Gen. Joaquín Rea and American forces under Gen. Joseph Lane.
