The province of Troizinia (Template:Lang-el) was one of the provinces of the Attica Prefecture, from 1964 to 1972 of Piraeus Prefecture and later again to Attica prefecture until today. Its territory corresponded with that of the current municipalities Troizinia and Poros.[5] It was abolished in 2006.
