During the American Civil War, two major battles were fought on Union soil. The first occurred on September 17, 1862, in Antietam, Maryland, and resulted in a draw (although the Confederate invasion of the Union ceased at that point). The second occurred on July 1-3, 1863, in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, and resulted in a Union victory.
Antietam

The Battle of Antietam was only fought on one day, September 17, 1862. The dead of both sides amounted to: 1,512 Confederate and 2,108 Federals (Union).

September 17, 1862. This was the day the Battle of Antietam (as the Yankees called it), or Sharpsburg (as the Rebels called it) was fought. The Confederates named battles after the nearest town, the Yanks after the nearest body of water - in this case, Antietam Creek. This was a one day battle and the single bloodiest day of the war. Gettysburg had more casualties, but they were inflicted over the three days of that battle.
