Thorkel Luplau Møller was a Danish architect who primarily worked in and around Aarhus at the turn of the 20th century. Thorkel Møller was born in Sorø 28 July 1868 but moved to Copenhagen where he obtained a degree in architecture in 1898. He was initially employed by architects Hack Kampmann and Martin Nyrop but in 1900 he was hired by Jydske Landboforeninger in Jutland. From 1924 until he died he was supervisor at the Marselisborg Palace. Stylistically he worked in the National Romantic style and later Baroque Revival. Thorkel Møller died in 1946 in Aarhus.
