About Johann Jakob Stehlin
- Johann Jakob Stehlin (20 January 1803 – 18 December 1879) was a Swiss politician of the Free Democratic Party. Born in Basel, Stehlin was mayor of that city from 1858 to 1868.
- He also represented the canton Basel-City in the National Council, which he presided over in 1858/59 and 1867/68, and in the Council of States. On 11 July 1855, Stehlin was elected to the Swiss Federal Council to succeed the deceased Josef Munzinger.
- The next day, he declined the election, becoming the first of five Councillor-elects (as of 2008) to do so.
- Josef Martin Knüsel was elected in his place on 14 July. Two of Stehlin's sons also acquired renown: Karl Rudolf Stehlin, also a member of the Council of States, and Johann Jakob Stehlin junior, a noted architect.
