In this paper we characterize all the lexsegment ideals which are normally torsion-free. This will provide a large class of normally torsion-free monomial ideals which are not square-free. Our characterization is given in terms of the ends of the lexsegment. We also prove that, for lexsegment ideals, the property being normally torsion-free is equivalent to the property of the depth function being constant.
