History
In antiquity the area of Lisciano Niccone occupied a strategic position as a passage between the valleys of the Tiber and the Trasimeno and the Val di Chiana. Its importance is reflected in the presence of numerous fortified castles between the Niccone and Pierle valleys. On 29 May 1202 the community formally submitted to Perugia. In the 13th century it formed part of the contado of Porta Sant'Angelo and was governed by a vicario appointed by the Perugian authorities. After the death of Uguccione de' , lord of Cortona, the rocca of Lisciano came into the possession of the Comune of Perugia. In 1859 the municipality had a population of 1,814 inhabitants. Of these, only 28 lived within the castle, while 1,786 resided in scattered rural farmhouses.
