Aninoasa ( or Aninószabányatelep) is a town in Hunedoara County in the Transylvania region of Romania. The town is located in the Jiu Valley, which is a coal basin, and many of the towns residents are coal miners. Aninoasa administers one village, Iscroni (Alsóbarbatyeniszkrony). It officially became a town in 1989, as a result of the Romanian rural systematization program.
==Geography== The town is situated near the confluence of both headwater rivers (Jiul de Vest and Jiul de Est) of the Jiu, north of the Vâlcan Mountains and in the eastern foothills of the Retezat Mountains. Most of the town was built along Aninoasa creek, and the town is actually separated into two areas by the Jiul de Vest. "Anin" means "alder tree" in Romanian.
