France, France

---

Ternay is a very small rural commune in the Vienne department of the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region in western France.

Located in the historic Loudunais area near the border with the Deux-Sèvres department, it has a population of about 190 residents and is surrounded by rolling farmland and countryside. The village is known for its vineyards and truffle-producing lands, and it lies near the Dive River, which helps shape the local landscape.

Its peaceful setting and proximity to the Loire Valley make it a representative example of traditional rural France. One of Ternay’s notable landmarks is the Château de Ternay, a historic castle that reflects the area's long heritage. Despite its small size, the commune offers a quiet atmosphere, natural beauty, and a strong connection to the agricultural traditions of the region.
