History
In the year 1915, corresponding to the King Vajiravudh (Rama VI)'s reign. Chakkrawat was an amphoe (district) of Phra Nakhon province, same as Sam Yaek, Sampheng, and Samphanthawong.
Later in the year 1931, during the King Prajadhipok (Rama VII)'s reign. The economic downturn, the Siamese government therefore has to save the nation's budget. Therefore had to merge the Chakkrawat and Sampeng together with Samphanthawong since then.
