This temple also had a bond with King Naraesuan’s reign. In year 1592, when King Naraesuan conquered the war with King Uparat of Myanmar at Tambol Nongsarai, Supanburi, he built a big chedi as the signal of the conquest. It was not clear whether it was a new chedi or a restoration of an old one. However, it was named “Chaimongkol Chedi”. The people called it “Chedi Yai”. After that, it was combined together to “Wat Yai Chaimongkol”. However, it was abandoned after the 2nd fall of Ayuttaya. It was then restored again during the Rattanakosin Kingdom.
