Lordship of Vukovar
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Lordship of Vukovar (German: Herrschaft Vukovar, Serbo-Croatian: Vukovarsko vlastelinstvo, Вуковарско властелинство) was a large land estate, lordship, established in the Kingdom of Slavonia in 1731, after the liberation of the region from the Ottoman rule following the 1699 Treaty of Karlowitz.[1] The seat of the lordship was in the town of Vukovar, on the banks of the Danube river where between 1749 and 1751 representative Eltz Manor was constructed. The lordship existed until the end of the World War II in Yugoslavia and the establishment of the Federal People's Republic of Yugoslavia in 1945. Significant part of its agricultural estates was subsequently run by the agricultural production company—Vupik.[2]
