The Památník Antonína Dvořáka (Antonín Dvořák Memorial) is a museum and cultural center dedicated to the life and work of the composer Antonín Dvořák. It is located in Vysoká u Mělníka, the village where Dvořák was born in 1841. The memorial complex includes Dvořák's birthplace, a permanent exhibition detailing his life and compositions, and a concert hall built on the foundations of the original farmhouse barn.
