The Battle of Gettysburg was fought from July 1–3, 1863, in Gettysburg during the American Civil War. It was a major battle between the Union Army, led by George G. Meade, and the Confederate Army, led by Robert E. Lee.
Lee had invaded the North hoping to win a decisive victory on Union soil. On the first day, Confederate forces pushed Union troops back through the town to strong defensive positions on high ground. On the second day, intense fighting occurred at key locations such as Little Round Top and Cemetery Ridge, but Union forces held their lines. On the third day, Lee ordered a large frontal assault known as Pickett’s Charge, which failed after heavy losses.
The battle resulted in about 50,000 casualties, making it one of the bloodiest battles of the war. The Union victory ended Lee’s invasion of the North and marked a turning point in the conflict. Later that year, President Abraham Lincoln delivered the famous Gettysburg Address at the battlefield cemetery.
