Nin'an (仁安), also known as Ninnan, was a Japanese era name (年号, nengō,, lit. "year name") after Eiman and before Kaō. This period spanned the years from August 1166 through April 1169.[1] The reigning emperors were Rokujō-tennō (六条天皇) and Takakura-tennō (高倉天皇).[2]

Change of era
- February 3, 1166 Nin'an gannen (仁安元年): The new era name was created to mark an event or series of events. The previous era ended and a new one commenced in Eiman 2, on the 27th day of the 8th month of 1166.[3]
Events of the Nin'an era
- 1168 (Nin'an 3, 2nd month ): Rokujō was deposed at age 5, and he received the title Daijō-daijin tennō.[4]
