April 9, 1865 marked the turning point in American history when Confederate General Robert E. Lee surrendered to Union General Ulysses S. Grant at Appomattox Court House, Virginia. The scene was solemn—two exhausted armies, a modest house, and a quiet handshake that ended the bloodiest conflict on U.S. soil. Over 600,000 lives had been lost, and the country stood at the edge of reunification. Grant offered generous terms of surrender, allowing Confederate soldiers to return home with dignity, carrying their horses and sidearms. This moment wasn’t just a military conclusion; it symbolized the beginning of America’s path toward healing and reconstruction.
