Hippocrates Plane Tree
Tree of Hippocrates.
The Tree of Hippocrates is one of the most iconic landmarks on the island of Kos. According to tradition, the famous physician Hippocrates once taught his students under the shade of this plane tree. Although the current tree is believed to be a descendant of the original, the site remains a powerful symbol of the island’s connection to the birth of modern medicine. Today it stands beside the historic harbor and attracts visitors from around the world.
