Sažetak
In this article the development of medieval estate of Želin (in Zagreb County) in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries is analysed. This analysis can be seen as a case study of development of estates in medieval Slavonia. It is focused both on owners and inhabitants of the estate (up to the point that is possible to do, based on relatively scarce sources) as well as on mapping of borders of the estate based on the data from perambulations recorded in charters. The core of the estate was Želin, mentioned in the sources from the 1260s as a state property, that is, property of the bans of Slavonia. In 1293 King Andrew III gave it to Radoslav Babonić, to be owned by him and his descendants as their hereditary estate. Sometime in the period of the Babonić rule, between 1293 and 1327, Želin castle was built. However, after (or shortly before) the breakdown of power of the Babonići in 1327, the estate was again taken over by King Charles Robert. In 1328, the king made an agreement with Knights Hospitallers. They gave him estates of the Čičan Preceptory. In return, he gave them estates Starča and Trnava in Požega County. Parts of the Čičan Preceptory (Čičan, Kravarsko and Pešćenica) were merged with Želin, which meant significant enlargement of borders of the estate. Želin remained royal estate governed by castellans until 1390s. In 1396, nobleman John Széchy, son of late Ban Nicholas Széchy was mentioned as an owner of Želin. When and how he got the estate is not known at this point, but it happened at sometime during the reign of King Sigismund of Luxemburg. John Széchy did not hold it for long. In 1399, Lawrence, Nicholas and Christopher, sons of Nicholas Toth of Susedgrad were mentioned as new owners. The Toths and their descendants the Hennings will own the estate throughout the whole fifteenth century.
