I presume you mean the ancient city of Troy, as in "Helen of..." If this is your question it is thought to be in Turkey. Near the coast on the western part of Asia Minor. Because of the change in climate and the river near Troy silting up, the city is now several miles inland, not on the coast as mentioned in Homer's story of Troy.
