Saint-Didier-de-la-Tour (French pronunciation: [sɛ̃ didje də la tuʁ], literally Saint-Didier of La Tour) is a commune in the Isère department in southeastern France. It is often referred to as "La Cassôla", after a spring in the village, which has heavily coloured waters.
Until the First World War, lignite mines were exploited near the village, employing over 600 people.
