Antoniny, Ukraine


Antoniny and Antonyny is an urban-type settlement in the Krasyliv Raion of Khmelnytskyi Oblast in western Ukraine. The town's population was 2,655 as of the 2001 Ukrainian Census and 2,400 in 2011.
In the 1870s a Neo-baroque palace was built in Antoniny by Austrian architects Fellner & Helmer for the noble Sanguszko and Potocki families. However, it was burned to the ground in a fire set by Bolsheviks in August 1919, and only the palace service buildings remain.
In February 1930 the village was the centre of a quickly defeated anti-Soviet Union revolt.
