Black's Store, also known as the Brettun & Black Museum, is an historic building located in Hampton, Illinois, United States. The mercantile store was built in 1849 and was the largest store in Northwest Illinois when it opened.[2] It is a three-story brick structure that had one of the first elevators in the Midwest.[3] Preservationist Ron Nelson of Bishop Hill, Illinois restored the elevator in recent years. The store served as a riverboat stop and later as a stop on the Galena Stagecoach.[4]
The Brettun & Black Museum recreates the 1849 store. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.[1]
