Lee's troops were notably defeated at the Battle of Gettysburg in July 1863, which marked a turning point in the American Civil War. This three-day battle resulted in significant casualties and ended Lee's invasion of the North. Another significant defeat occurred at Appomattox Court House in April 1865, where Lee surrendered to Union General Ulysses S. Grant, effectively leading to the end of the Civil War.
