| 1587 | Palliport Leper Hospital/Lazaretto"The oldest institution in the Madras presidency specifically for the care of leprosy suffers was the Pallipost Lazaretto at Cochin. Said to have been established by the Portuguese in 1587, it was restored by the Dutch in 1728 and continued by the East India Company as a leprosy hospital in 1795. The Lazaretto was initially maintained with rent money from the river ferry which ran from Vypeen to Cochin."
