The Pap Madison Cabin is a historic log cabin located in Rapid City, South Dakota, near The Journey Museum and Learning Center. It is the oldest Euro-American building in the Black Hills area. The cabin was built in 1876 by pioneer Rufus 'Pap' Madison using cottonwood found alongside the banks of the nearby Rapid Creek. Madison stayed in the house from its completion until 1889, when he sold the land to Rapid City's founder, John Brennan. Brennan gave the cottage to the city in 1926.
