What did rich people eat for dessert in medieval times?

Cakes, pies, tarts, pastries, custard dishes, and sweet fruit dishes were eaten as well as apples, pears and other sweet fruits. There was no refined sugar in the middle ages so the only thing to use to sweeten food was honey. Since sugar was very rare and expensive, most of the foodstuffs that we now consider desserts did not exist. Medieval people did however know and eat fruit and cheeses, which today are considered desserts. But in medieval times - and even until well into the 19th century - people did not have desserts as such: all the food was brought to the table more or less simultaneously, and you chose what you fancied or what was brought to you.


How were medieval manor houses heated?

The manor houses of the Middle Ages were nearly always heated by an open fire on a hearth in the center of the great hall, with the smoke vented through a hole in the roof or high on the wall. Kitchens also had open fires, which were sometimes vented through what was called a smoke canopy. Smoke canopies could be used in other rooms, but that would have been rare. The chimney was not invented until the 12th century, and only seldom appeared after that, until the Renaissance. The introduction of fireplaces was one of the most important differences between medieval and early Renaissance home architecture. There are links below to a pictures showing fire placement in a medieval grate hall and a medieval kitchen.


What is medieval manner?

I am going to assume you mean a Medieval Manor, as apposed to medieval "manner" i.e. ways and customs. A manor was the basic division of medieval land holding. It was held by a particular noble or knight, usually from a greater noble, who received military service or money in exchange for granting it as a fief. Most of the time a manor was one village and its farmland, pasture, and other surrounding country. In a few cases a manor might include several villages if the individual villages were small, or in rare cases the lands of a village might be split between two manors. The primary purpose of the manor, at least to the noble, was to produce income through agriculture. Some of the farmland of the manor was held directly by the lord, and worked by serfs who owned him labor, often supplemented with some hired labor as well. The lands held by the villagers where in theory rented from the lord, and their use of the land generated some cash rents, and small fees paid in goods at various times over the year.

When was the first day of school?

I guess that depends. If you are talking about modern times, there might be a slight (very rare) chance that there is a specific date. But other than that schooling was there even in the ancient times. For example in India schooling was done under Trees in the ancient and medieval times (you might find it now also in some places) Hope you liked my answer ~Cheers
