Atlanta was captured by Union forces during the American Civil War in September 1864. General William Tecumseh Sherman led the Union Army of the Tennessee in a series of battles against Confederate General John Bell Hood's forces.

Grant's forces launched a series of assaults that breached the Confederate defenses surrounding the city. As Confederate troops, led by General Robert E. Lee, retreated in the face of overwhelming Union numbers, Richmond fell on April 3, 1865. This event marked a significant turning point, leading to the eventual surrender of Lee’s Army at Appomattox Court House shortly thereafter.
