  We present observations in the optical, near-infrared and millimetre bands of
the Ultraluminous Infrared galaxy IRAS 19254-7245, also known as "The
Superantennae". This galaxy is an interacting system with a double nucleus and
long tails extending for about 350 kpc. We studied in detail the southern
component of the system which is optically classified as a Sy2 galaxy. We have
developed a method to determine the parameters of the emission lines in a
spectrum in the case of multiple components and severe blending. Our data allow
us to build a picture of the environment around the nucleus of the galaxy with
unprecedented detail. The optical lines show a complex dynamical structure that
is not observable in the near-infrared. In addition we find typical features of
AGN such as the coronal lines of [FeVII]5721 and [SiVI]1.96. We also detect
strong emission from [FeII]1.64 and $H_2$.
