Antimachia Windmill

Highlight • Monument

The windmill of Antimachia is the main attraction to visit the village beforehand. The village is located 23 kilometers from Kos town and a bit in the middle of the island. Within five kilometers you are on the coast at Mastichari by car. You can easily park your car in the centre, recognizable by the windmill. This windmill, nicknamed Milos tou papa, has been well restored and does not immediately give you the traditional impression that the village should give you.

Traditional House Museum

Highlight • Historical Site

Local history museum opposite the windmill. It is a replica of a traditional farmhouse as was common on the island in the 1950's.

Traditional Stone Windmill of Kos

Highlight • Monument

If you visit the mill you get a guided tour.
It's pretty interesting if you're into technology.
Admission is free, but it is desirable that you then do some shopping in the small shop.
Homemade pastries are sold here, which also taste pretty good 👍🏼


Very friendly saleswoman

Kefalos

Highlight • Settlement

Perched on a plateau about 100 meters above the bay of the same name, Kefalos is a charming Greek village, visible from afar. The birthplace of Hippocrates and the former capital of the island is not only the geographical counterpart to Kost Town.

The town center is an oasis of tranquility. The many winding alleys and confusing street layout alone make orientation in Kefalos difficult, especially since there is apparently no vantage point from which the town can be overlooked. Anyone strolling into the town center will notice that the town is larger than it appears at first glance: Kefalos, with its approximately 2,000 inhabitants, is the second-largest settlement on the island.
