Slakovci is a settlement in Stari Jankovci within Vukovar-Srijem County in eastern Croatia. It sits in the flat landscape of the eastern Pannonian Plain and is connected to surrounding communities through regional roads.
The settlement was first documented in 1491 and subsequently fell under Ottoman control. During the period of occupation from 1526 to 1691, a fort was built by the Gorjanski family.
