FK Radnički Pirot (Serbian Cyrillic: ФК Раднички Пирот) is a professional football club based in Pirot, Serbia.

The club was formed in 1945 immediately after World War II. They made their Yugoslav Second League debut in the 1969–70 season. The club spent the following 12 consecutive seasons in the second tier of Yugoslav football, before being relegated in 1981. After only one year, they won the promotion back, spending the next six seasons in the Second League (19821988), when the competition was reorganized.

The club made its debut in the newly formed Second League of FR Yugoslavia in the 1992–93 season. They would continue to compete between the second and third level leagues in the following decade.

The club achieved one of the biggest results in its history by reaching the quarter-finals of the 2004–05 Serbia and Montenegro Cup, when they were eliminated by Rad after losing 0–1 at home. At the end of the season, they also won the promotion to the Serbian First League after finishing first in the Serbian League East. The club spent the following three seasons in the second tier of Serbian football, before being relegated back to the Serbian League East in 2008. In the meantime, they repeated the success in the national cup by reaching the quarter-finals of the 2006–07 Serbian Cup, when they were eliminated by Vojvodina after losing 1–2 at home.
