Battle of Antietam (or Sharpsburg) stopped General Lee's first invasion of the North. The second invasion was stopped at Gettysburg, PA. In a technical sense, Antietam caused the invading Army of Northern Virginia to retreat from its already launched invasion of the North.
After the Battle of Antietam in September of 1862, Lee's Army of Northern Virginia had to retreat from Maryland back to Virginia. Lee's evacuation from Maryland, for that moment of the war ended Confederate plans to take the war to the enemy, the Union.
