At the courthouse town of Appomattox, Virginia. The formal surrender took place in the parlor of Wilmer McLean. Interestingly, First Battle of Bull Run was fought on property owned by him. McLean moved to Appomattox in the spring of 1863 to escape the seat of war in Northern Virginia.

Additionally, for all practical purposes this ended the war, however, there were other armies and naval vessels that surrendered later in April and even far into 1865.
