In medieval society, a serf occupied a lowly and dependent status, often bound to a lord's land and required to work it in exchange for protection and a small plot for their own sustenance. Serfs were not considered free; they could not leave the land without the lord's permission and were subject to various obligations, such as labor and payments. Despite their limited rights, serfs played a crucial role in the agrarian economy, supporting the feudal system that structured medieval life. Their standing was often one of hardship, with little opportunity for social mobility.
