Charles Moeller

Charles Clément Auguste Moeller (1838–1922) was a Belgian historian.

Life Moeller was born in Leuven on 14 April 1838, the son of Jean Moeller, a professor of history at the newly refounded Catholic University of Leuven. He himself became a lecturer at the same university in 1863, teaching courses on the political history of classical antiquity and of the Middle Ages. From 1883 he also taught contemporary history. In 1891 he stopped teaching ancient history.

To mark his fifty years of teaching at the university (1863–1913), a two-volume Festschrift was published by former members of the historical seminar in Leuven, Mélanges d'histoire offerts à Charles Moeller (Leuven and Paris, 1914). At the outbreak of the First World War he briefly became a refugee in Oxford.
