The Anton Pann Memorial House sits on Strada Anton Pann no. 20, in Sector 3, in the Udriște area — the former Lucaci neighborhood, close to Calea Călărași today. It's part of the National Museum of Romanian Literature.

The building standing there now was built from the ground up, but it sits exactly where Anton Pann bought a house, along with the land, on February 20, 1848. He lived there between 1848 and 1854, the final stretch of his life, and it was the only home he ever lived in without paying rent. Nothing survives from the original construction except the cellar walls.

Anton Pann was born in the late 18th century in Sliven, in present-day Bulgaria, under the name Antonie Pantoleon-Petroveanu. He traveled through Chișinău, Brașov, Râmnicu Vâlcea, and eventually Bucharest, speaking Romanian, Greek, Bulgarian, Russian, and Turkish fluently. He worked as a poet, composer of religious music, folklorist, and publicist — Eminescu references him in "Epigonii" as "Pepelea's godson, clever as a proverb." He's buried at Lucaci Church, close to the house where he lived.

The permanent exhibition inside traces the range of his work: personal belongings, documents, and materials tied to both his musical and literary output.

Opening hours run Tuesday to Sunday, 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM between March 1 and October 31, and 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM the rest of the year, closed Mondays. An adult ticket costs 33 lei, the discounted rate (retirees, students, military, organized groups) is 16.5 lei, and children under 7 get in free, along with people with severe disabilities and their companions. A guided tour costs an extra 33 lei, and there's a 55-lei fee for visitors who want to film or photograph inside.
