Appomattox Court House
April 9th 1865, at Appomattox Court House.
it wasn't a battle. it was here where Robert E. Lee surrendered to Ulysses S. Grant to end the Civil War. (The Court House at Appomattox.) Actually, there was a battle of Appomattox too (sorry to correct you). And the Union army won. 500 confederates were killed and 27,805 surrendered. Only 164 Union soldiers were killed one more correction- it wasn't at the Court House at Appomattox, the town was called "Appomattox Court House." The official surrender between Lee and Grant took place at a farmer's home there. ya that person is right it was a battle that the union won, and it was the battle that led to the battle in Texas that ended the Civil War.
Appomattox Court House is located about 190 kilometers west of Richmond.
Appomattox Court House is a national historic site, because the Confederacy (south) surrendered here. They surrendered shortly after the Union (north) invaded and captured their capitol, which was Richmond, Virginia.
Appomattox County Appomattox, Virginia
Technically neither. The Court House at Appomattox is where Lee signed his surrender to U.S. Grant. By extension, the events that occurred there would count as the culmination of losing the War Between the States, therefore would represent a "Union win."
