The object of the present invention is to provide a three-way valve reduced in the number of component parts and man-hours for assembling the component parts. A pressure chamber of a piston for urging a first main valve in a valve-closing direction by a spring, and a pressure chamber of a piston for urging a second main valve in a valve-opening direction against the urging force of a spring are connected to a medium-pressure port B via a pilot valve and a pressure passage. When the pilot valve is open, the pressure in the pressure chambers into which high-pressure fluid is introduced from a high-pressure port A via an orifice is permitted to escape to the medium-pressure port B, whereby the piston is pushed upward by the high pressure to open the first main valve, and a plug is urged by the spring to close the second main valve. When the pilot valve is closed, the pressure in the pressure chambers becomes high, so that the piston is pushed downward by the spring to close the first main valve, and the piston is pushed downward by the high pressure to open the second main valve. Since the pilot valve is formed by a two-way solenoid valve, and the pressure passage is formed within a body, it is possible to reduce the number of component parts.
