We investigate two types of genuine three-qubit entanglement, known as the Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) and W states, in a macroscopic quantum system. Superconducting flux qubits are theoretically considered in order to generate such states. A phase coupling is proposed to offer enough strength of interactions between qubits. While an excited state can be the W state, the GHZ state is formed at the ground state of the three flux qubits. The GHZ and W states are shown to be robust against external flux fluctuations for feasible experimental realizations.
