Come to Antonín Dvořák Birth House on June 14 to hear an exceptional young artist who captivates the world with her masterful piano playing. Magdaléna Kovářová is a rising, yet already shining star of the Czech music scene. Despite her young age, she has achieved success in competitions and, most importantly, won the hearts of audiences.
Discover the rebirth of Dvořák’s life, legacy, and home. The story of the world-famous composer Antonín Dvořák (1841–1904) began in the small Bohemian village of Nelahozeves, 35 km north of Prague.
Connecting music and place, the immersive and interactive visitor experience is inspired by the sights and sounds of Dvořák’s rural childhood to reveal their influences on his future musical masterpieces. An exhibition of historic objects and imaginative displays combines engaging multimedia content, including a personal audio guide experience, narrated by an older Antonín Dvořák. Visitors will dwell in the authentic atmosphere of the house itself, while also learning the story of Dvořák’s early life. The house and grounds also serve as a cultural center offering dedicated music education courses, workshops, concerts, a meditation garden, and community enrichment programs for visitors of all ages and capabilities.
Antonín Dvořák rose from humble origins as the son of a local butcher and innkeeper, to become an internationally renowned composer. His Baroque birth house serves as a significant cultural monument, reflecting the formative environment that shaped his musical genius.
