The palace is located in the village of Prosna, about 32 km west of Kętrzyn. Built in 1610-1620, it originally served as the seat of the Prussian noble family von Eulenburg, the Prosna line. After a thorough modernization in the second half of the nineteenth century, it was rebuilt into a negotiating style whose nature is reflected in today's ruins. The remains of the palace complex are surrounded by a landscaped English park and numerous farm buildings. The palace building itself lies in the bend of the Guber River and was founded on a plan similar to the letter L. This is a neo-Gothic assumption, resulting from the reconstruction of the baroque building from the end of the 19th century. It is characterized by an irregular block resembling a castle. Only the facades of the building have survived, which is lined with red clinker brick, supplemented with characteristic arched windows. Next to the building, next to numerous remains of the neo-Gothic pinnacles, there is a high brick tower overlooking the site, a four-sided lookout tower. By the tower, however, there is a cylindrical staircase and the remains of an arcaded gallery. The entire body of the palace was rich in numerous details and decorations, such as balustrades, galleries and forged steel grilles, which were made with extreme care. The ruins of the foundation also have a partially buried basement. The palace complex in Prosna has been entered in the register of monuments. It consists of buildings: a ruin of a palace, a half-timbered stable from the 18th century, a park from the turn of the 18th and 19th centuries, a smithy from 1886, and a flake shop from 1907.
