-What is a fief? In Medieval times land was broken up into fiefs. But a fief was more then just a piece of land. A fief had to include at least one village with huts for the serfs, a manor house or castle for the noble, and land to grow or catch food. A fief was not ownership. A fief was actually a loan from the king and the king could take it back.
