The Civil War ended when Robert E. Lee surrendered to U.S. Grant at?

[Edit]

The answer you're looking for is Appomattox.



BUT... The Civil War did not end when Lee surrendered the Army of Northern Virginia. He was merely surrendering his army. As a General, he was not allowed to discuss the surrender of the Confederate States. He surrendered his army at

Appomattox Court House

To be more specific, it was in Wilmer McLeans parlor, the same Wilmer McLean in whose back yard was fought in 1861 the First Battle of Bull Run. He decided he didn't like the neighborhood so much, and left shortly afterwards...

To Appomattox Court House...

Though Lee did surrender, there was an entire army still under the command of General Joseph E. Johnston that would not surrender until later.
