Provided is a thermal conductivity detector including a detection channel through which a gas to be measured flows as a fluid, a heat conducting part that includes at least a filament provided at a position in the detection channel at which the filament is in direct contact with the fluid flowing through the detection channel, the filament being folded at least once in a direction substantially parallel to a flow direction of the fluid flowing through the detection channel, and that conducts heat via the fluid flowing through the detection channel, and a detection circuit that detects an electric signal in accordance with a change in current or voltage of the filament. The filament is folded by being holed on a folding pin provided substantially perpendicular to the flow direction in the detection channel, and the folding pin has a position shift prevention structure for preventing a fold of the filament hooked on the folding pin from shifting in a longitudinal direction of the folding pin.
