From the bulb fields you can already see that Lisse has many churches. The highest tower is that of the St. Agatha church located in the center of Lisse. This church is also called the Cathedral of the Bollenstreek and is certainly worth a visit.
The St. Agatha church is located in the center of the village center of Lisse, also known as the “Cathedral of the Bulb Region” due to its size and appearance. The church dates from 1903 and was designed by Jean H. van Groenendael. The church naturally also has a bulb history; the church is co-financed by the bulb growers in Lisse, which is reflected in the unique drawings with bulb flowers on the walls of the church.
