Sant'Antonio abate is a Roman Catholic church in Milan, Italy. The church is located on a street running parallel to Via Festa del Perdono.

Built in Mannerist style, construction began in 1582 on the site of an older church. The current appearance of the church is the work of Francesco Maria Richini, carried out in the 17th century. The Neoclassical façade designed by the architect Giacomo Tazzini.

The church contains frescoes by Genovese and his brother Giovanni Battista Carlone; a fresco cycle on the Life of the Virgin by Giulio Cesare Procaccini (1574-1625), a “Nativity” and “Adoration of the Magi” by Pier Francesco Mazzucchelli, and frescoes by Guglielmo Caccia, depicting scenes from the Old Testament.
