After a brief introduction to the theoretical basis of the Higgs mechanism for generating the masses of elementary particles, the experimental searches for Higgs particles will be summarized, from bounds at LEP to inferences for LHC. The report will focus on the Standard Model, though some central results on extended Higgs systems, as conjectured for example in supersymmetric theories, will also be recapitulated. Alternative scenarios based on spontaneous symmetry breaking by novel strong interactions are adumbrated at the theoretical level.

To the disappointment of many physicists, it was not possible to push the LEP energy higher, and the difficult decision was taken to shut LEP down at the end of the year 2000, leaving the lower limit $m_h > 114.4$ GeV at the 95% CL [ref] .

After the discovery of the Higgs particle, the properties must be examined experimentally to identify the particle as the element proper of the Higgs mechanism for breaking the electroweak symmetries [ref] [for recent general reviews see Refs.$$ [ref] ].

The experiments have been built on a solid theoretical basis, initiated in early pioneering work and elaborated to comprehensive pre-studies of the experimental programs developing at both types of colliders, see e.g. Refs. [ref] and [ref] .

After the early profiling of the Higgs boson in the Standard Model [ref] , a comprehensive picture of the particle was drawn in the “Higgs Hunter's Guide”, Ref. [ref] , followed by extensive overviews of electroweak symmetry breaking in general and the Higgs mechanism in particular, as presented e.g. in Ref. [ref] , and by broad discussions of phenomenological aspects[We apologize to all authors whose important work could not be given the reference proper in this very brief report.] in Refs. [ref] and [ref] .
