From June 15, 1864 until April 3, 1865, the Siege of Petersburg was developed, which faced the Union Army, commanded by General Ulysses S. Grant and the Confederate Army, led by General Robert E. Lee.

The siege of Petersburg was a military campaign characterized by the realization of numerous battles and military movements, which were not specifically limited to the territory of the city of Petersburg.

The campaign lasted 10 months, and ended on April 3, 1865, when the Union Army occupied the city of Petersburg.

As a result of the loss of Petersburg and Richmond, General Lee's army had to flee to the west. Finally, on April 9, 1865, the Confederate Army was surrendered.
