Where was the formal surrender of the south to the north located?

There was no formal surrender of the South to the North. General Robert E. Lee surrendered his army on April 9, 1865, at Appomattox, Virginia. General Joseph E. Johnson surrendered the armies east of the Mississippi on April 26, 1865 in Raleigh, North Carolina. The Confederate Government dissolved itself on May 2, 1865. The order went out from a Union General in Galveston, Texas on June 19, 1865, for all Confederate flags to be removed and the Emancipation Proclamation to be read from every courthouse in Texas. That day is called Juneteen. Take your pick.

That was the name of a tiny hamlet West of Petersburg, and the historic meeting between Grant and Lee was held in a converted tavern called the McLean House.

The British general O'Hara, on behalf of General Cornwallis who claimed to be sick, surrendered Cornwallis's sword at Yorktown. The terms of surrender had been agreed upon earlier that morning. General Rochambeau was the intended receiver, but refused the sword, gesturing instead that O'Hara should give it to General Washington. General Washington then called forth his second in command, General Benjamin Lincoln to accept the sword.
