Summary / Abstract:

ENThe latter half of the seventeenth-century wars significantly reduced the monarch’s revenues from the royal estates in the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. The most ruined was the estate of Mogilev, which was the most profitable. As a result of the ten-year Moscow occupation and military operations, its profitability dropped by almost 80 per cent compared to 1650. Severe damage was also inflicted on the estates of Grodno, Alytus, Brest, and Kobrin, where the income dropped by about half. The best situation was that of the Šiauliai estate, occupied by the Swedes only for a short time. However, in 1661 it was pledged, which deprived the royal treasury of its relatively high revenues. The post-war period became the time of reconstruction and increased profitability of all Lithuanian estates. This is made evident by lease contracts concluded and inventories and revisions made. However, by the end of the century, the situation from before the wars with Moscow and Sweden was not achieved. Keywords: table estates, royal economies, Grodno, Mogilev, Alytus, Šiauliai, Brest, Kobrin. [From the publication]
