Słobity Palace (Polish: Pałac w Słobitach; German: Schloss Schlobitten) is a ruined baroque palace in Słobity, in the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship in Poland, constructed between 1622 and 1624.
It was the seat of the Schlobitten branch of the Dohna family. In 1945, it was looted and plundered by the Red Army, before it was set afire. Since then it has been a ruin.
Part of the inventory and collections was saved by prince Alexander zu Dohna-Schlobitten (1899–1997); he later transferred this to the Prussian Palaces and Gardens Foundation Berlin-Brandenburg in order to keep it together; it can be now admired as the Dohna-Schlobitten collection in Schloss Doberlug in Doberlug-Kirchhain, Germany.
