Tarnopol[1] is an unincorporated community in Saskatchewan, Canada, located 50 kilometres (31 mi) southwest of the city of Melfort. It was settled mostly by Ukrainian and Polish immigrants in the early 1900s. Tarnopol gets its name from Ternopil, Ukraine, which was formerly known as Tarnopol[2] when that district was part of the Imperial Austrian province of Galicia.
