Where did serfs live in the Middle Ages?

Answer 1

Most serfs lived on manors. These were farming estates that belonged to lords, and whose residents were mostly serfs. The serfs typically lived in a village or hamlet on the manor, in cottages.

Some serfs were not agricultural and worked as laborers. They typically lived in cottages in villages or boarding houses in towns.

Answer 2

Serfs lived on the estates associated with medieval manors or villas. They lived in very simple cottages, possibly of a single room, with walls made of stone or wattle and daub on wooden frames, and thatched roofs.

Answer 3

Serfs were mostly agricultural and lived in hamlets and villages. A minority of them lived in towns and made up the laborers. I think it is safe to say that all towns had serfs living in them.

Answer 4

Most of the time they would live in their own little huts while they were not working. In the case of a flood the Lords MIGHT have let the serfs stay in the Manor.

Answer 5

The Serfs lived under the estates of the Lord, along with Peasants.
