Honours
Hahnemann's honors are not trophies but institutions and monuments. The Samuel Hahnemann Memorial in Washington, D.C., the statues and plaques in Europe, and the hospitals and colleges that carry his name all exist because a movement he started in the 1790s never died. World Homeopathy Day, observed every April 10, is perhaps the most widespread tribute, marked with rallies and free clinics from India to Europe. For a man who worked in near-constant conflict with the medical establishment of his time, the scale of the commemoration is remarkable.
