Histoire

Nagapattinam est un ancien centre du bouddhisme. Le Chudamani Vihara, un monastère bouddhiste, y fut construit avec l'aide du Raja Raja Chola et d'un roi Shrîvijaya de Java. Le bouddhisme y prospéra jusqu'au XVe siècle et les bâtiments du vihara survécurent jusqu'au XVIIIe siècle.

La ville fut une possession portugaise; elle fut prise par les Hollandais en 1660, puis par les Anglais en 1781.
