Agia Triada is an archaeological site in Crete, a settlement from the era of the Minoan civilization.
Agia Triada is located 4 km from Phaistos, in the western part of the Mesara valley. Agia Triada does not have the palace complex typical of many cities in Minoan Crete. However, there was a very prosperous city here, and also, possibly, the villa of one of the lords of Crete. Nearby are two churches - the Holy Trinity and St. George, built in the Venetian period; the abandoned village of Agia Triada, destroyed by the Turks in 1897.
Agia Triada includes a city and a miniature "palace"; the ancient drainage system associated with them; as well as early Minoan tombs - tholos. Found in Agia Triada, the famous clay sargophagus is currently in the archaeological museum of Heraklion.
