Tthe deadliest one-day battle of the Civil War was Antietam. The deadliest two-day battle was Chickamauga. The deadliest 3-day battle was Gettysburg, which also "beats" all other battles unless you consider the Siege of Petersburg a "battle".

The most devastating battle in the American Civil War was the Battle of Gettysburg. It went on for 3 days (July 1-3 of 1863). The most lives were lost in this battle than any other battle ever. It was the bloodiest battle and all of the Confederates (Southerners) were shot down. The few that survived were captured. The Unions (Notherners) won this battle
