The Moore House is a historic building located in Yorktown, Virginia. Built in 1725, the home was owned by Augustine Moore at the time of the 1781 Siege of Yorktown, and, on 17 October 1781, the house was used as the venue for ceasefire talks between the representatives of American general George Washington and British general Charles Cornwallis, resulting in Cornwallis' surrender on 19 October.
