Prasat Daun Troung (ប្រាសាទដូនទ្រុង - Pronounced: Pra-saht Dawn T'rong!) a single standing red sandstone temple along with a ruined laterite library in the southeast corner. The site is surrounded by a laterite enclosure with an east entrance laterite pavilion and a large man-made reservoir to the northeast.
There is a theory that not all of King Jayavarman VII's arogyasala's were built from scratch, and that he may have re-adapted some former sites or even re-used former arogyasala's that were built by his predecessors. There are a number of sites, like this site where the single central tower depicts earlier art styles, though the overall layout of the site seem to point to a arogyasala layout with a library in the southeast corner surrounded by a laterite enclosure with a east entrance pavilion and a nearby man-made reservoir.
