Łysiec was home to one of the communities of Armenians in Poland.

[3] Following the joint German-Soviet invasion of Poland, which started World War II in September 1939, the town was occupied by the Soviets until 1941, then by Germany until 1944, and then re-occupied by the Soviets in 1944, and eventually annexed from Poland in 1945.

Until 18 July 2020, Lysets belonged to Tysmenytsia Raion.

[4][5] Until 26 January 2024, Lysets was designated urban-type settlement.

On this day, a new law entered into force which abolished this status, and Lysets became a rural settlement.
