A native of Alençon, Lisch studied at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts and was pupil of Léon Vaudoyer and Henri Labrouste. His architectural career was geared towards civic work: stations, public buildings, churches, and restoration of monuments.[1][2] He built the Gare des Carbonnets, a train station in a Paris suburb.[2]
Juste Lisch retired in 1901 and died in Paris in 1910.[3] He is buried in the Rouen monumental cemetery.[1]
