In 1609 the Bishop of Worms made Dirmstein his summer residence. Noble gentlemen now took up residence in Dirmstein and built magnificent houses. A customs house was built at the upper gate and occupied. It can be assumed that the current building was destroyed in the Palatinate War of Succession in 1697, when Dirmstein was reduced to rubble and ashes. There were 5 remaining houses. The end of customs in Dirmstein is probably towards the end of the 18th century, at the time of Napoleon Bonaparte's sacrilege.
