The Temple of Athena Poliouchos was a temple complex located in a sanctuary on the acropolis of the city of Gortyn in the region of Minos' Legacy in Messara, Greece. It was dedicated to the goddess Athena, one of the city's main deities, alongside Apollo and Demeter.
During the Peloponnesian War the misthios Kassandra explored the place.[1]
