The district was created during the premiership of Field Marshal Plaek Phibunsongkhram.
The minor district (king amphoe) was created on 23 February 1962, when the five tambon Di Lang, Manao Wan, Khok Salung, Chong Sarika, and Nong Bua were split off from Mueang Lopburi district.[1] It was upgraded to a full district on 16 July 1963.[2]
Administrationedit

There are two townships (thesaban tambon): Phatthana Nikhom covering parts of tambons Phatthana Nikhom and Kaeng Suea Ten covering parts of tambon Nong Bua. There are a further nine tambon administrative organizations (TAO).
