[1] The monastery was constructed by King U-Thong in 1357 AD to accommodate the monks that were ordained by Phra Wanratana Mahathera Burean.

Afterwards, Phra Wanratana of Wat Pa Kaew suggested to King Naresuan the Great to build a Chedi (pagoda).

Wihan Phraphutthasaiyat (the name of the ordination hall) was constructed in the reign of King Naresuan the Great for religious adoration and royal meditation.

The ubosot (buddhist temple) and vihara (monastery) have their rear sections extended through the gallery.

King Naresuan the Great had an order to construct this Chedi as the memorial for his victory over Maha Uparacha (crown prince) of Burma.
