Rapid City Sister Cities
Sister City programs bring diverse cultures together. Rapid City has been honored to be selected as a sister city to both Nikko City, Japan and Apolda, Germany.
Rapid City's relationship with Nikko city began in the early 1990s with the city of Imaichi. Imaichi combined with four other cities in March 2006 to form Nikko City. Rapid City was then selected as Nikko City's sister city.
Like Nikko City, Apolda became a sister city to Rapid City in 1994. Several exchange visits have taken place between Apolda and Rapid City, including a firefighter exchange between the two cities in 2000. There also have been exchanges of law enforcement and medical personnel.*
