Η μονή Αγκαράθου είναι η πρώτη στην τάξη ανδρική μονή, της Κρήτης, και απέχει 23 χλμ. από το Ηράκλειο.

Πιθανολογείται ότι έχει ιδρυθεί από το Νικηφόρο Φωκά το 10ο αι., αλλά αναφορές υπάρχουν τον 15ο αι. Πρόκειται για φρουριακή μονή με το ναό στον τύπο του σταυροειδούς με τρούλο. Υπήρξε κέντρο παιδείας από την Ενετοκρατία μέχρι σήμερα, με σημαντικές μορφές που ανέβηκαν στην ιεραρχία της εκκλησίας μας και έγιναν πατριάρχες, όπως ο Κύριλλος Λούκαρις, ο Μελέτιος Πηγάς, ο Σιλβέστρος ο Κρης, ο Θεόδωρος ο Β.

Ο επισκέπτης μπορεί να επισκεφθεί τμήματα του μοναστηριού, κελιά, το καθολικό, ένα εξαιρετικό εκκλησιαστικό μουσείο και τη βιβλιοθήκη. Οι μοναχοί σήμερα ασχολούνται με βιολογική καλλιέργεια αμπελώνων- ελαιώνων.
