Wat Monthop, or the Monastery of the Spired Building, as Cushman translated it in his Royal Chronicles, is situated on Ko Loi (floating island) in the northeastern area of Ayutthaya, in the Hua Ro Sub-district. The temple stood before on the mainland. The creation of the small islets Ko Loi and Ko Chong Lom due to digging new water shortcuts dates from the post-Ayutthaya era.
Wat Monthop is located opposite the canal at the open market opposite the Chankasem Museum and the tourist main long-tail boat landing.
Wat Monthop is mentioned in the Royal Chronicles of Ayutthaya in the chapter on the Revolt of Tham Thian in 1696 CE, during the reign of King Phetracha (1688-1703 CE). Tham Thian tried to attack the city from this location but was struck by the guns of the Maha Chai Fortress, fell from his elephant, and died.
