record
The history of the construction of Wat Kudi Dao is not clear. appear in books The Northern Chronicles say that Phraya Thammikarat which was the son of King Sai Nam Phueng, built in Chula Sakarat 671, Year of the Rabbit, Eksaka and the Empress Dowager His Majesty built Wat Maheyong together. In the testimony of Khun Luang Ha Wat, it is stated that "...His Majesty the King built Wat Kuti Dao (Kuditwa) and Phra Phuminthrathibodi built the temple. Maheyong" but many editions of the Royal Chronicles of Ayutthaya state that "...His Royal Highness Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn (Chao Sam Phraya) built Wat Maheyong and there is no mention of Wat Kudi Dao. Until the late Ayutthaya period When there is restoration Wat Maheyong, a big time during the reign of King Tai Sa..." Therefore, it can be assumed that Wat Kudi Dao was probably built around the same time as Wat Maheyong. or a little after Wat Maheyong
But the evidence of the restoration has the same content. Wat Kudi Dao was renovated by His Majesty King Borommakot, who at that time held the title Krommaphra Rajawang Bowon Sathan Mongkol. Around the year 1711-1715, by 1715, a large temple celebration was held. As the text reads: "...in the Year of the Goat, the Phra Maha Viceroy ordered a celebration at Wat Kudi Dao. Perform royal merit by giving many offerings to the Triple Gem. Let the celebration be played for 7 days. The celebration is complete.
After this, there were no further stories of Wat Kudi Dao regarding construction or repairs. But it appears that Wat Kudi Dao is a royal temple. Evidence appears that when King Uthumporn first ascended the throne, he invited five royal monks to help negotiate and compromise with Prince Sam Krom. One of them is Phra Thepmuni Wat Kudi Dao who later became the Supreme Patriarch in the reign of King Ekthat
