Sebastiano Tecchio (3 January 1807 – 24 January 1886), was an Italian lawyer and politician that was president of the Italian Senate from 1876 to 1884.[1]
Born in Vicenza, he graduated from the University of Padua in law.
He worked as a lawyer when Vicenza was part of the Kingdom of Lombardy–Venetia. In 1849, he fought against the Austrian Empire during the First Italian War of Independence and after the Battle of Novara, he was forced to leave his hometown to live in exile in the Kingdom of Sardinia where he was, for a brief time, a minister.
