The Battle of Appomattox Court House, fought on April 9, 1865, was won by Union forces led by General Ulysses S. Grant. This decisive battle effectively marked the end of the Civil War, as Confederate General Robert E. Lee surrendered his Army of Northern Virginia to Grant. The surrender led to the eventual collapse of the Confederacy and the preservation of the United States.
