Current: 2016-17 Danish 2nd Divisions

The 2nd Division is the third tier Danish football league, just after the 1st Division.

It was founded in 1945, after World War II, as the second-best Danish football division. When the Danish Superliga was founded in 1991, the 2nd Division became the third level league. From 1991 to 1997 the league was played as half-year seasons, as the lower league played spring-autumn tournaments, and the higher leagues played autumn-spring.
