Saint-Léonard-de-Noblat is a village and commune of the Haute-Vienne département, in the Limousin région of France.
Perched on a hill above the river Vienne, the town is named after Saint Leonard of Noblac, who, legend suggests, was responsible for the liberation of many prisoners in 11th century France.
