Abstract
Income and expenditure books were kept on the Valpovo manor, which the paper analyzes for the period from the fiscal year of 1724/25 until 1759. In those years, the income and expenditure ledgers also included data on the financing of healthcare on the estate. For three and a half decades, the activities of local surgeons, as well as those from Osijek and other, unknown locations were financed from the manor treasury. For 35 years there were no surgeons on the manor. The manor covered the costs of healthcare for its officials, as well as its subjects and the local friars. People were often injured during brigand raids or while performing various services on the estate, but the manor even covered the costs of curing those injured while performing agricultural work on their own land, or on allodial farms.
