Going through pre-WW2 photos and cannot figure out what this says. I’m getting “Antoninhoff” but that is not a place. You can see it both in the sign on the train station, as well as in the second photo in handwriting. Help!

The likelihood of getting an answer to your question is quite low rn.
It’s 5 am here and 90% off the German folks are still sleeping through their buzz
Google Poznań Antoninek, that’s the Polish name of the station.
[Here are some pictures](https://poznan.fandom.com/wiki/Pozna%C5%84_Antoninek)
In Germany
It could be Poznań Antoninek maybe…
There is a place “Antoninhof” (one f) in what is now Poland (Antonie in Polish), but would have been Germany at the time:

It does seem to be at a rail line, so having a station makes sense:

Maybe Antonin (Przygodzice) now in Poland.
The name was Antonshof from 1939 – 1943… would fit the sign at the train station.
The pictures look like they might be from that timeframe .

Maybe it was Germany long time ago, now it’s not
