The commander of Andersonville, Captain Henry Wirz, was tried by a military tribunal for war crimes after the Civil War. He was accused of inhumane treatment of prisoners at the Confederate prison camp, which resulted in high mortality rates. In 1865, he was found guilty and executed by hanging. His trial and execution remain controversial topics in discussions about war responsibility and treatment of prisoners.
