The Black Death, which swept through Europe in the mid-14th century, significantly impacted serfs by drastically reducing the population and creating a labor shortage. This shift allowed surviving serfs to demand better wages and working conditions, as their labor became more valuable. Many serfs sought to escape their feudal obligations, leading to increased mobility and opportunities for social advancement. Ultimately, the pandemic contributed to the decline of the feudal system and increased the bargaining power of the lower classes.

What did the plagues do in the medieval times in England?
We do not know exactly how many died in the Black Death, but it might have been as much as half the people of England. It returned more than once, and kept returning until the seventeenth century. When the Black Death was over, there were not enough farmers in England. Serfs were supposed to stay on the manors where they were born, but with an insufficient number of workers, many lords tried to tempt serfs off the lands of their neighbors. They did this by offering a better deal than the serfs had previously had. This brought serfdom in England to an end in not very many years.
