Present-day Mannargudi dates from the time of the Thanjavur Nayak king, Vijaya Raghava Nayak (1633–1673), also called "Mannaru dasan" who carried out extensive renovations of the Rajagopalaswami temple complex and is credited by some with having reclaimed the land from the surrounding forest.
Vijaya Raghava Nayak (1634–1673), was the last of the Nayak Kings of Thanjavur.
