Best Answer

The first land battle of the Civil War took place at the First Battle of Bull Run (First Battle of Manassas) near Manassas Junction, Virginia on July 21, 1861.

This followed the bombardment and surrender of Fort Sumpter (Charleston, South Carolina) on April 12, 1861, along with the capture of other Union forts on the Atlantic coast of the South.

The first battle was at Ft. Sumter SC. The first land battle was known as the First Battle of Bull Run- Manassas VA. Note to original poster- Gettysburg was MUCH later, and it is in Pennsylvania, not VA.
