Eleonora Leon Antoine Leclerc Juigné, born 2 November 1728 in Paris, where he died 19 March 1811, was a French prelate.
He was the son of Samuel-Jacques Le Clerc of Juigné, killed September 19, 1734 at the Battle of Guastalla in Spain, and Marie Gabrielle Le Cirier of Neufchelles (1706–1763). He was vicar-general of Carcassonne, general agent of the clergy in 1760, bishop of Châlons-en-Champagne in 1764, Archbishop of Paris in 1781, and member of the clergy for the city and suburbs of Paris to the Estates General of 1789. His involvement was essential in the alliance of the clergy with the Third Estate, making possible the French Revolution. He was then a member of the Constituent Assembly of 1789.
In 1794, he followed the Bourbons into exile in Germany, living for a while in Konstanz, where there was a sizable emigre community and in Überlingen, a Free Imperial City on the north shore of Lake Constance.
