Saint-Léonard-de-Noblat

Saint-Léonard-de-Noblat stands on a hill above the Vienne River, featuring narrow streets that merge near the central Romanesque collegiate church.

The 11th-century collegiate church received recognition as a UNESCO World Heritage Site due to its location on the Santiago de Compostela pilgrimage routes.

The local inhabitants, known as Miaulétous, maintain regional traditions through events and celebrations that highlight the heritage of Nouvelle-Aquitaine.

The town hall provides administrative services including civil status documentation, national identity cards, and passport applications for the 4,332 residents.

The renowned scientist Joseph Louis Gay-Lussac originated from this commune, where a dedicated museum preserves his scientific contributions and personal history.
