Bohemian composer, choirmaster and organist. Son of the composer Ferdinand Doubravský (1747-1829), he received music lessons from his father. In 1820 he was appointed organist of the St. Mikuláš church in Lomnice nad Popelkou in a post he probably held the rest of his life. He was also active there as teacher, composer and music director. As a composer, he mainly wrote sacred music, among them, 73 masses, 13 requiems, 5 Stabat Mater, 11 Te Deum, Litanies. Apparently, he also composed 4 symphonies and a violin concerto but all of them are currently lost.
