villein
The most common type of serf in the Middle Ages. They had more rights and a higher status than the lowest serf, but existed under a number of legal restrictions that differentiated them from freemen.
freemen
Men who were not serfs in the feudal system.
Explanation:
The lord of a manor was supported by his land holdings and contributions from the peasant population. Serfs who occupied land belonging to the lord were required to work the land, and in return received certain entitlements.
Serfdom was the status of peasants in the manor system, and villeins were the most common type of serf in the Middle Ages.
Villeins rented small homes with or without land; as part of their contract with the lord they were expected to spend some time working the land.
Villeins could not move away without the lord’s consent and the acceptance of the new lord whose manor they were to move to. Because of the protection villeins received from the lord’s manor, it was generally not favorable to move away unless the landlord proved to be especially tyrannical.
The manor system was made up of three types of land: demesne, dependent, and free peasant land.
Manorial structures could be found throughout medieval Western and Eastern Europe: in Italy, Poland, Lithuania, Baltic nations, Holland, Prussia, England, France, and the Germanic kingdoms.
