David Farragut seized New Orleans during the American Civil War in April 1862 by leading a daring naval operation. Commanding a fleet of Union warships, he bypassed the heavily fortified Confederate defenses at Forts Jackson and St. Philip by navigating the narrow and treacherous Mississippi River. Farragut's fleet launched a surprise attack, effectively overcoming the forts and entering the city. His successful capture of New Orleans was a significant strategic victory for the Union, as it controlled the vital Mississippi River and disrupted Confederate supply lines.
