history
Liposthey has been a stop on the road from Bordeaux to Dax since ancient times . As a result, the route ran as a royal road from Bordaux to Bayonne . In 1464 a post office was set up. The village appears on the map of the Camino de Santiago to Santiago de Compostela from 1648. At that time, pilgrims passed Liposthey on the Via Turonensis , who were received by a hospital . During the Middle Ages , Liposthey was a customs post and got its name from it. After the French Revolution , Liposthey was affiliated with the neighboring municipality of Pissos without prior approval. Local politicians fought for independence and after numerous visits to the authorities and negotiations, Liposthey gained its autonomy in 1859 under the reign of the French Emperor Napoleon III. In the course of the second half of the 19th century, traditional land use in the form of agriculture and natural grazing, which had shaped the local economy, was gradually pushed back. The law of June 19, 1857 provided for the drainage of the land and the planting of maritime pines and thus marked a turning point in the history of the region. From then on, the local economy was oriented towards the industrial use of tree sap and wood. In the 19th century, Liposthey owned one of twenty stations on the France-wide optical telegraph network , the technology of which had been developed by Claude Chappe . The station was installed in 1822 on a square tower that no longer exists today. Until the first third of the 20th century, important weekly markets were held every Monday in the community. The traders came from all over the department and even from Bordeaux and La Teste-de-Buch .
Liposthey had a break point on the railway line of Voies Ferrées des Landes , the Ychoux with Moustey association. The section between Ychoux and Pissos was opened on October 27, 1890, the further section to Moustey on August 13, 1905. Due to a lack of economic efficiency, passenger traffic on the non-electrified, single-track line was temporarily suspended on September 15, 1939, from 1940 to 1950 but continued to operate in order to compensate for the gaps in the railway network caused by the war. Freight traffic was finally stopped on September 1, 1979.
Population development
After an initial peak in the number of inhabitants of 380 in the second half of the 19th century, the size of the community subsequently fell to around 160 inhabitants during short recovery phases until the 1960s, before a robust phase of growth began that brought the size of the community to over 500 inhabitants raised.

Attractions
Parish Church of Saint-Pierre
The parish church, consecrated to the Apostle Peter , was rebuilt around 1868. Its nave contains a nave that is extended in a choir in a three-walled apse , which was built lower than the nave. Two side chapels form a false transept. The interiors are decorated with ribbed vaults that rest on pillars . In the west, the bell tower with the porch on the ground floor rises up in front of the nave. He is crowned with a helmet that is covered with slate .
All furnishings were created at the same time or only a little later than the new building of the church. Five glass windows are works by the glass painter Henri Feur from Bordeaux , which were created in 1893.
