Best Answer

The role of noblewomen was to:

  • produce a male heir to carry on the blood line and inherit most of the father's wealth and property
  • to manage the household, including servants, accounts, food storage and so on; this responsibility might be delegated to a trusted servant
  • to marry a nobleman of equal or higher rank
  • to entertain guests and ensure their comfort

Noblewomen frequently spent time producing needlework, embroidery and similar activities, perhaps sometimes hunting or shooting with the longbow.
