History
Mols-Linien was formed by DFDS in 1964 sailings commenced on the 18th May 1966.[1]
A downturn in traffic following the 1973 oil crisis led Mols-Linien into a pooling agreement with rival Grenaa-Hundested Linien in 1979.[2]
In 1984 DFDS sold Mols-Linien and Grenaa-Hundested Linien to J. Lauritzen A/S. The company was sold 4 years later to Danish investment company DIFKO.
In 1999 Mols-Linien merged with Scandlines subsidiary Cat-Link.
Scandlines sold its holding to the Clipper Group in 2008.
In July 2011 Mols-Linien announced it was to close the Kalundborg - Aarhus route and sell the two vessels operating the route.[3]
Mols-Linien closed the Aarhus - Kalundborg route on 15 September 2011. The route is now operated by Kattegatruten.
