Thédirac (French pronunciation: [tediʁak] ; Occitan : Tedirac) is a commune in the Lot department in south-western France.

The town contains the Church of Saint Roch, a prime example of a fortified medieval church. Historical displays inside the church state that it was remodeled and enlarged in the 13th and 14th centuries CE, but its main structure dates to the 11th century and the base of the chevet (structure with the altar and apse) is much older.
