Education, Community Programs, Enhanced Public Spaces
This national landmark will be a center for education, inspiring and nurturing young musical talent with dedicated practice and performance spaces, courses, and workshops. Diverse outreach programs will offer new ways to appreciate and engage with Dvořák’s life and music. New landscaping, improved infrastructure, and sustainable environmental development in the Town Square will provide a revitalized setting to host public concerts, events, and activities. The annual Dvořák Nelahozeves Festival, which takes place at Nelahozeves Castle, the Birth House, and around the Town Square every September, will also continue its longstanding tradition.
Fundraising Campaign
Our hope is to build a musical landmark that will inspire future generations and honor Dvořák’s legacy that has been instrumental in introducing the rest of the world to the Czech Republic’s rich cultural heritage.
We are actively seeking funding to open the museum to the public by spring 2024. If you are interested in this project and wish to support our efforts to transform the Antonín Dvořák Birth House into an exceptional cultural destination, please contact:
