Later Vesterport and three other gates served as customs control.
The town gate became obsolete when excise duties on imports of goods into the market towns ceased in 1850.
In 1876 the city council was about to demolish the gate. It was saved at the last minute due to the cost of demolition and the consequences for the adjacent homes.
Restored in 1879. Renovated again in 1917. The original window openings were restored and the upper part of the hooded gables was reconstructed.

Vesterport is an impressive relic of Faaborg's medieval past –
the last remaining city gate of a once fortified town. Originally part of a fortification with walls and moats, it later served as a customs checkpoint for goods entering the market town. With the abolition of excise duties in 1850, the gate lost its function, and in 1876, it was on the verge of demolition. Only the high costs
and its proximity to neighboring houses saved it at the last minute.
