Ternopillja (Ukrainian: Тернопілля, German: Dornfeld) is a village (selo) in Mykolaiv Raion, Lviv Oblast, in south-west Ukraine.

The village was established in the course of Josephine colonization by German Lutheran settlers in 1786.[1] They built a church that became a religious centre for Lutherans living in other nearby Josephine colonies.

From 1918 to 1939 the village was in Lwów Voivodeship in Poland.
