Appomattox Court House National Historic Park

In this village, General Lee and his Army of Northern Virginia surrendered to General Grant and the Army of the Potomac. The terms of their "gentlemen's peace" inspired a new unity and a new purpose for our Nation.

The village of Appomattox Court House has been restored to its Civil War appearance.
