Foeni (Hungarian: Fény; German: Fün or Feuenfeld; Serbian: Фењ, romanized: Fenj) is a commune in Timiș County, Romania.

The entire territory of the commune is included in the Great Plain of Timiș, which sprawls in the west and southwest of the county, a flat land, with heights not exceeding 80 m (260 ft).

[4] Attested by the Ravenna Geographer, the Roman castrum of Bacaucis lied on Foeni's present-day hearth, on the road from Tibiscum to Lederata.

[5] The first to do systematic research was Augustin Bárány, in 1845, after a large number of objects and bricks with Roman seals were found in the area.

[6] In 1890, Francisc Cumont makes a scientific description of the results of Bárány's research and concludes that in the garden of Mocioni Mansion and near it is the foundation of the Roman castrum.

[9] Cruceni was originally located in the "Place of the Cross" (Romanian: Locul crucii), a few kilometers from the current village, towards Timiș River.

[2] The present-day Cruceni was created by German colonization in 1722,[2] being designed according to the same Austrian models adapted to Banat, with straight and perpendicular streets.
