Aintoura (Arabic: عينطورا; Syriac: ܥܝܢܛܘܪܐ) is a town and municipality in the Keserwan District of the Keserwan-Jbeil Governorate, Lebanon.

[2] Aintoura, which means "the water spring of the mountain" (ܥܝܢܛܘܪܐ) in Syriac, is a very old village inhabited, as tools found in two of its historic grottos witness, since the Stone Age.

At the time, Lebanon was an integral part of the Ottoman Empire, and Saint Joseph College had been morphed into an orphanage, its church into a first aid center, and its tower into a minaret.

Several public figures had studied in Saint Joseph College of Antoura, namely three former Lebanese Presidents, Suleiman Frangieh, Rene Mouawad, and Elias Sarkis, May Ziadeh, Kamal Jumblatt, Ghassan Tueni, Maurice Gemayel, and many others... Antoura, as a village, has, therefore, a proper higher learning institution, not a simple village school.

The Lebanese Canadian University LCU, founded in 2000, has been graduating around 1500 students every year with degrees in Business, Sciences, Arts and Humanities in partnership with internationally renowned universities such as l'Université Montesquieu Bordeaux IV, Grenoble Ecole de Management, IPAC France& Switzerland, Université du Quebec in Montreal, and Université de Sherbrooke in Canada.
