An Afterlehen or Afterlehn (plural: Afterlehne, Afterlehen) is a German term for a fief that a liege lord has himself been given as a fief and then, in turn, enfeoffed wholly or partially to one or more lesser vassals. It is variously referred to in English as a mesne-fief or mesne-tenure, an arriere-fief or subfief, under-tenure or mesnalty. Within the feudal system of the Holy Roman Empire, these mesne fiefs became inheritable over time and could have up to five "stations" between the actual holder of the fief and the overarching liege lord. An example of an Afterlehen is Rothenberg Castle in Bavaria, Germany.
