Q

What was the difference between freemen and serfs

A

Freemen had to pay rent to the lord and pay a tithe (a tenth of their income to the local priest) but did not have to work the land for free.

Serfs, on the other hand, essentially belonged to their lord. They worked six days a week farming the lord’s lands. In return, they received a small plot of land to farm and build a house on. They could not leave the manor or marry without the lord’s permission. They paid taxes to the lord and a tithe to the priest. If a serf escaped and stayed free for a year and a day, he became a freeman.
