General Lee (commander of the Confederate Army) surrendered to General Grant (commander of the Union Army) at the Appomattox Court House, Virginia. This ended the Civil War.

The war itself was not ended at Appomattox. There were a few more small battles in other arenas of the war. By May of 1865 the war for all practical purposes was over.
