History
In the past, Nang Buat district covered a large area. Prince Damrong Rajanubhab and the governor of Suphanburi agreed to separate the northernmost part and then created a new district named Doem Bang on May 16, 1911. They also added two tambons of Hankha district, Chainat Province and two tambons of Bang Rachan district, Sing Buri Province. In 1939 the government changed the district name of Nang Buat district to Sam Chuk, they decided to put the word Nang Buat after Doem Bang, so since that year the district is named Doem Bang Nang Buat.
The present district office is located on Chainat-Suphanburi Road, Tambon Khao Phra since 1995.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“I believe that in the history of art and of thought there has always been at every living moment of culture a “will to renewal.” This is not the prerogative of the last decade only. All history is nothing but a succession of “crises”Mof rupture, repudiation and resistance.... When there is no “crisis,” there is stagnation, petrification and death. All thought, all art is aggressive.”
—Eugène Ionesco (b. 1912)
“All history and art are against us, but we still expect happiness in love.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“History does nothing; it does not possess immense riches, it does not fight battles. It is men, real, living, who do all this.... It is not “history” which uses men as a means of achieving—as if it were an individual person—its own ends. History is nothing but the activity of men in pursuit of their ends.”
—Karl Marx (1818–1883)
