Picturesque Buildings of the Antoniny Palace

Antoniny is an urban village with a population of about 2,200 people located in the Krasyliv district of the Khmelnytskyi region, about 70 km north of Khmelnytskyi. This settlement under the name of Golodki was first mentioned in documents of the second half of the 14th century. Throughout its history, it belonged to different noble families.

In the 1760s, Barbara Urszula Sanguszko, the owner of the village, transferred Golodki for long-term use to Ignacy Malchevsky, the regent of the Crown Chancellery, who was married to her sister Antonina.

Malchevsky built a wooden palace here and ordered to lay a park, which over time became one of the best in Volyn. He named the estate after his beloved wife, and over time the village began to be called Antoniny too.

On the eve of World War I, a multi-storey palace with a large number of surrounding buildings impressed with its beauty and architectural sophistication. In 1919, the palace burned down. But a number of buildings of the former palace ensemble have survived to this day. Antoniny on Google Maps. Photos by: Maxim Ritus.
