Kroz prikaz povijesti plemićke obitelji Adamović Čepinski tekst pridonosi poznavanju kulturne, gospodarske i političke povijesti prostora današnje Hrvatske, ali i Slovenije, Srbije, Austrije te Bosne i Hercegovine. Adamovići su početkom 18. stoljeća upravljali Valpovačkim vlastelinstvom, a potom u Slavoniji i Podunavlju posjedovali imanja Čepin, Tenje, Aljmaš, Erdut, Bačko Novo Selo. S vremenom se obitelj podijelila na čepinsku i tenjsku granu. U tekstu se donose manje poznati podatci iz povijesti tenjske grane obitelji Adamović, koja je od sredine 19. stoljeća posjedovala imanje sa sjedištem u Velenju (Slovenija), a obiteljskim vezama bila u bliskim odnosima s brojnim plemićkim obiteljima Austro-Ugarske Monarhije. Uz sintezu dosadašnjih publiciranih istraživanja, rad se temelji na informacijama i arhivskom gradivu nasljednika ove obitelji koji su i danas povezani s Hrvatskom. The noble family of Adamović Čepinski was from the 18th century in possession of the Čepin, Tenje, Aljmaš and Erdut estates in Slavonia and Podunavlje as well as of some estates in Bačka; over the course of time, it split into the Čepin and Tenje factions. This text provides less known and yet unexplored data on the history of the Tenje family faction which from the 19th century owned an estate that had its seat in Velenje (Slovenia). They left significant traces in economic, cultural and political life and constituted a connection between present-day eastern Croatia and Slovenia at the time when these areas belonged to the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy, i.e. to the same constitutional and cultural circle. Although they sold the Tenje estate in the late 19th century, they remained connected to the estates in Erdut, Bačko Novo Selo and Ostrožac; after they sold Velenje, they continued to live there up until World War II. They strengthened their social position additionally through marital ties between notable families the relations of which reached to the Viennese Court, the Russian Imperial Court and the Court of Victorian England. A significant family bond was created with the politician and landlord Ervin Cseh de Szent-Katolna, the grand prefect of the Syrmia County. His stepson Ivan Albrecht Baron Adamović of Čepin was also prefect of the Syrmia and subsequently the Virovitica County. After World War II the family was deprived of all its estates in then Yugoslavia; however, after decades in exile the heirs were able to reclaim their estates in Croatia in part.
