The Battle of Sewell's Point was an inconclusive exchange of cannon fire between the Union gunboat USS Monticello, supported by the USS Thomas Freeborn, and Confederate batteries on Sewell's Point that took place on May 18, 19 and 21, 1861, in Norfolk County, Virginia in the early days of the American Civil War. Little damage was done to either side. By the end of April 1861, USS Cumberland and a small number of supporting ships were enforcing the Union blockade of the southeastern Virginia ports at the southern end of the Chesapeake Bay and had captured several ships which attempted to pass the blockade. USS Monticello's bombardment of the Sewell's Point battery was one of the earliest Union Navy actions against Confederate forces during the Civil War. While it has been suggested by some

(fr) スウェルズポイントの戦い（英: Battle of Sewell's Point）は、南北戦争開戦直後の1861年5月18日から21日に、バージニア州ノーフォークのスウェルズポイントで起きた、北軍砲艦と南軍砲台の砲撃戦である。北軍は砲艦のUSSモンティチェロとこれを支援するUSSトマス・フリーボーンの2艦だった。どちらの側にもほとんど損傷は無かった。 4月の末までにUSSカンバーランドと少数の支援船がチェサピーク湾の南端でバージニア州南東部の港を海上封鎖し、これを通過しようとした船舶数隻を捕獲していた。砲艦USSモンティチェロがスウェルズポイントの砲台を砲撃したのは、南北戦争で北軍海軍が南軍に対して行った最初期の行動だった。このモンティチェロの行動が、この戦争で北軍による最初の砲撃だったとする資料もあるが、1861年5月7日に、同じくバージニア州ヨーク川のグロスターポイントで、北軍の砲艦USSヤンキーが、まだアメリカ連合国陸軍に組み込まれていなかったバージニア州志願兵の籠もる川岸砲台と、短時間の砲撃戦を交わしていた。これをグロスターポイントの戦いと呼ぶこともある。 (ja) De Slag bij Sewell's Point vond plaats op 18 mei en 19 mei 1861 bij Norfolk, Virginia tijdens de Amerikaanse Burgeroorlog.
