Irakleia (Greek: Ηράκλεια) is a village in Phthiotis, Greece.

It is located in the plain between Mount Oeta and the Malian Gulf, near the city of Lamia.

It retained this name until 4 July 1915, when it was renamed to Irakleia Trachinias (Ηράκλεια Τραχινίας),[2] after the nearby ancient city of Heraclea in Trachis.

[2] Since the establishment of the independent Kingdom of Greece, the settlement has been part of the Phthiotis Prefecture (originally in 1835–1899 and again in 1909–1943 the Phthiotis and Phocis Prefecture).
