What are townspeople Middle Ages?
Medieval towns people were mostly of two classes. They were either laborers who were technically serfs, but did not live on manorial estates, or they were members of the middle class. Members of both classes worked as servants, weavers, potters, carpenters, smiths, and so on. People in towns usually did not have their own cooking facilities, so there were a lot of people who cooked and sold food, especially bakers. These business were owned by middle class people, but the workers might technically have been serfs. Also, towns had lawyers, apothecaries, jewelers, inn keepers, and clerks. These were middle class people. Members of the nobility tended to live on their estates, which may have included villages, but usually did not include towns. Towns had clergy in them, and some had monasteries with monastic populations.
What house did Medieval Middle class live in?
There was no middle class. This is a modern concept. In the Middle Ages there was the nobility, church class, merchant class, and serfs. The largest of the 3 was the serf. They were also required to be foot soldiers in war.
What were rich people called in the middle ages?
AnswerThey lived in big houses. AnswerIn Western Europe, during the Early Middle Ages, the wealthy people were nearly all of the nobility, and they lived in manor houses at the edges of, or even in, villages. As the Middle Ages progressed, things changed. The development of castles started during the ninth century, and at that time members of the nobility started to live in castles during stressful times. A very few may have lived in castles permanently, but castles were very expensive to keep, and unless they were enormous, and enormously expensive, they tended to be very uncomfortable.Later, the nobility tended to want to live in more comfortable manor houses out of sight of the villages, so the old manor house were left for new ones farther out in the country.As more time passed, the wealth acquired from trade and financial services tended to accumulate in the hands of middle class people. They lived in towns and cities, and had town houses of a palatial scale. As cultural centers developed, members of the nobility also wanted to have town houses, and so began to move into housing similar to that of wealthy merchants.Please see the links below.
