Destino es una ópera en tres actos de Leoš Janáček con libreto checo del compositor y Fedora Bartošová. Janáček comenzó la obra en 1903 y la completó en 1907. La inspiración para la ópera provino de una visita de Janáček en el verano de 1903, después de la muerte de su hija Olga, al balneario de Luhačovice. Allí, Janáček conoció a Kamila Urválková, quien había sido el tema de una ópera de Ludvík Čelanský, Kamila, donde ella sintió que Čelanský había representado falsamente su personalidad. Después de enterarse de que Janáček era compositor, Urválková persuadió a Janáček de escribir otra ópera para contrarrestar el retrato de Čelanský sobre ella.
