Antoniny (Ukrainian: Антоніни, Yiddish: אנטאנין‎ Antonin) (formerly known as Holodky (Голодьки) and Antonyny (Антонини)[2] is an urban-type settlement in the Krasyliv Raion (district) of Khmelnytskyi Oblast (province) in western Ukraine.[3] The town's population was 2,655 as of the 2001 Ukrainian Census[3] and 2,400 in 2011.[4]

In the 1870s a Neo-baroque palace was built in Antoniny by Austrian architects Fellner & Helmer for the noble Sanguszko and Potocki families.[5] However, it was burned to the ground in a fire set by Bolsheviks in August 1919,[6] and only the palace service buildings remain.
