Tournan-en-Brie (, literally Tournan in Brie), or simply Tournan, is a commune in the Seine-et-Marne department in the Île-de-France region in north-central France. It is located in the Paris metropolitan area.
==History== In the fourteenth century a castle was mentioned belonging to the House of Garlande, whose lords were Guy de Garlande (who still lived in 1186), Anseau Ier de Garlande (of which there is no title), Anseau II de Garlande (who lived in 1192), Robert of Garlande and Anseau III of Garlande (from 1246 to 1255). The lordship of Tournan () was purchased from Jean II de Garlande by Pierre de Chambly, chamberlain of King PhilipIV, in May 1293 and yielded by him to Charles, count of Valois, in October of the same year.
