Bernays Institute is a Victorian building in Stanmore, London Borough of Harrow, England, that currently functions as a community event hall, Bernays Memorial Hall.
It was built in the old village of Great Stanmore as a parish hall and opened on 8 December 1871 by Lord George Hamilton. Bernays Institute was built as a memorial to Ernest Bernays, eldest son of Reverend Leopold Bernays, who was the rector of Stanmore at the time and chairman of Stanmore Gas Company off Marsh Lane. Ernest died at the age of 22 in a drowning accident on holiday in Ireland on 31 August 1870 - this date is written on the front of the building - he was buried at St John the Evangelist churchyard. The building was built on a plot of glebe land that was sold by Leopold on behalf of the church.
