History
The street was in the Middle Ages known as Lille Pilestræde (Little Pilestræde). Its name was later changed to Antonistræde after the Hospital Brothers of St. Anthony in Præstø who until the Reformation owned a building approximately where Silkegade 6Mbsash&8 is today. The street was renamed Antonigade in connection with an extension in 1901.{{cite web|url=http://www.indenforvoldene.dk/antonigade.html|title=Antonigade|language=Danish|publisher=indenforvoldene.dk|accessdate=25 November 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160305020828/http://indenforvoldene.dk/antonigade.html|archive-date=5 March 2016|url-status=dead}}{{cite web|url=http://www.kobenhavnshistorie.dk/bog/kko/a/kko_a-36.html|title=Antonigade|language=Danish|publisher=Selskabet for Københavns Historie|accessdate=25 November 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161125111215/http://www.kobenhavnshistorie.dk/bog/kko/a/kko_a-36.html|archive-date=25 November 2016|url-status=dead}}
