The results of longitudinal magnetic field measurements in polar prominences (PP), obtained by Rust during 1964–1965 and by the author during 1966, 1969 and 1970, are considered. The magnetic field configuration in PP is similar to that of an arc. In opposite branches of such an arc the magnetic field has different polarities that do not coincide with the magnetic field polarity in current cycle BMR's. The magnetic field value increases as the angle between the line of sight and filament long axis grows. PP's reflect the behaviour of the border line between the magnetic fields of preceding and current cycles.
