Yes, horses in the Middle Ages were often ridden with saddles. Saddles provided riders with stability, support, and protection, allowing them to stay on the horse for longer periods of time and engage in activities such as fighting or traveling. The design of saddles in the Middle Ages varied depending on the region and purpose, but they generally consisted of a wooden frame covered with leather padding and had stirrups for the rider's feet.
