The history of Lisse is closely related and similar to the neighboring towns of [[Hillegom]] and [[Sassenheim]]. Based on a document from 1198 which makes official mention of the town's name, Lisse celebrated its 800-year anniversary in 1998, although there is an indication that there was already a settlement there in the 10th century.
In the Middle Ages, Lisse was a small settlement; there were only 50 houses in 1500. Because of prolonged warfare (particularly the wars of [[Charles I, Duke of Burgundy|Charles the Bold]] and the [[Eighty Years' War]]), poverty was prevalent. Its population lived from [[agriculture]], [[animal husbandry]]

==Tourism and attractions==
The most popular attraction in Lisse is [[Keukenhof]], open only during spring when the [[tulip]]s are flowering. Also each spring a [[flower parade]] called the Bollenstreek ''[[Bloemencorso]]'' is held through the main streets of Lisse. In August the fantasy festival [[Castlefest]] is held in the gardens of Castle Keukenhof.
