About LOFOTEN
MS Lofoten (call sign LIXN) is a Norwegian passenger and cargo vessel formerly owned and operated by Hurtigruten. The ship was built in 1964. After Nordstjernen was retired from coastal service in 2012, Lofoten became the oldest ship in the current fleet still in operation. It operates cruises around the coast of Norway and sometimes in the Svalbard archipelago. The vessel was declared worthy of preservation in 2001 by the Norwegian Director General of Historic Monuments to preserve Norway's cultural heritage. She has been refitted several times—in 1980, 1985, 1995 and most recently in 2004.
