Hooker brought a massive army south, hoping to threaten Richmond or bring Lee to open battle where his vastly numerical superiority would crush the Confederates.

However, Lee sent Jackson's corps on a flank march, which hit Hooker's right flank like a thunderbolt, rolling the Union right up like a wet blanket. Hooker lost his nerve, and retreated.

Yes.

right now

Death of Stonewall Jackson. Without him, Lee's next battle (Gettysburg) was lost.

The South won in the battle of Chancellorsville.

With the Confederates occupying Chancellorsville and Fredericksburg, but Stonewall Jackson mortally wounded.

The Battle of Chancellorsville resulted in a Confederate victory, but casualties on both sides were heavy. Also, Thomas 'Stonewall' Jackson was mortally wounded in this battle.

Hooker attempted a surprise attack against Lee and Lee's cavalry(Stuart) discovered the movement of most of Hooker's Army. Lee took action to move his troops in order to face and counteract Hooker's plan. The result was a great victory for Lee's Army and another humiliating defeat for the Army of the Potomac.

It is near Fredericksburg, Virginia.

During the American Civil War, the Battle of Chancellorsville (fought in early May 1863) was won by the South because of the superior generalship of the forces it employed along with serious flaws in the command-decisions of several Union generals in the opposing force. General Robert E. Lee proved himself (yet again) in this battle to be a daring and decisive military commander, daring to split his forces, several times and to good effect, in the face of an enemy that outnumbered his greatly yet suffered from overly cautious or simply incompetent leadership.

Having just been appointed to command of the Army of the Potomac,General Joseph Hooker had his chance to destroy General Lee's Army of Northern Virginia. Most of the A.N.V. was located in the general area where they had been during the Battle of Fredricksburg which had been fought on Dec.13,1862. Hooker's plan was to leave Sedgwick's Corps in place at Fredricksburg to cause a diversion,while the rest of the A.o.P. was marched North and West along the Rappahanock River. Hooker was hoping to surprise Lee and trap his Army between the two parts of the Union Army(in order to fully understand this plan it helps to look at a map of this area). The Confederate Cavalry was not fooled by Hooker's move along the river,they watched his movements and reported to Lee. General Lee immediately saw what Hooker was attempting to do.Lee issued orders for his Army to march toward the area known as the Wilderness.Lee left the Division of Gen.Early at Fredricksburg to keep Sedgwick in check.The entire battle took 4 days and is too involved to detail here.In summary,this battle was where Lee shined brightest by taking bold action in the face of great danger to the Army,and by aggressive attack of Stonewall Jackson,Hooker's Army was defeated.

confederate had the victory...

The Union might well have won this one, under its confident and energetic commander, Joe Hooker.

But he was wrong-footed by Lee, who made a speciality of avoiding the ground on which his opponents tried to bring him to battle. Also Lee was still teamed with Stonewall Jackson, though this would be their last and most brilliant triumph. (Stonewall was mortally wounded in an incident of which there are many mysterious versions.)

The US Civil War Battle of Chancellorsville was a huge victory for the Confederacy under General Robert E. Lee. He beat the leader of the Army of the Potomac, John Hooker. Lee lost his best general when Stonewall Jackson was killed. Because of his victory at Chancellorsville, Lee decided to push forward to Harrisburg Pennsylvania. Hooker was replaced by George Meade.

General Robert E. Lee was the commander of the Confederate Army of Northern Virginia. The Federal Amy of the Potomac was led by Major General Joseph Hooker.

After the two victories, in particular that of Chancellorsville, Lee was inclined to put in motion the plan for the invasion of Pennsylvania, which was abandoned after the Battle of Antietam.

But the sudden plunge of the events on the front of the Mississippi, many Confederate military leaders wondered if the project of an attack in Pennsylvania was the wiser.

Among them was General Longstreet, who after Jackson's death was the most influential and the most skilled among Lee's lieutenants.

He was of the opinion that it would have to attack in Tennessee against General Rosecrans. For this purpose he proposed to concentrate not only the few troops

that Johnston had at Jackson, Mississippi, but also the entire I Corps of the Army of Northern Virginia. This could have been implemented exploiting the favorable location of railway lines. By so doing it would have been concentrated against Rosecrans about 100.000 men of which Lee would take command. Meanwhile Vicksburg would have been able to resist for a while and a strictly defensive should have been held on the Virginian Front

The attack in Tennessee would have broken through the center of the enemy front, isolating their wings ( deployed in Virginia and Vicksburg ) compelling the Union to draw Grant from Vicksburg to plug the leak.

The idea was submitted to the judgment of Lee and the Confederate High Command and Government, which ruled that the offensive had to be set off on the front of Virginia, because it was believed that a great victory won there would have not only given a mortal blow to the North, but also obtained for the federal recognition of France and Great Britain.

This question has a "when" and a "where" making it two separate questions. I hesitate to try and "splite it" So I will answer each.
