Appomattox is a small town in south-central Virginia, United States, famous for the April 9, 1865, end of the Civil War here. At that time, General Robert E. Lee, Commander-in-Chief of the Confederate Army, surrendered to General Grant, Commander-in-Chief of the Confederate Army in the North, at the town's McLean House, a historic event that marked the end of the division of the United States. Today, Appomattox Court House National Historical Park preserves the surrender site, including the McLean House, the courthouse, and other historic sites, making it an important landmark and popular tourist attraction for American Civil War studies. The town attracts visitors with its quiet countryside and deep history, and is a key window into the process of American unification.
