Enrique Barrau Salado (1912-1961) was a Spanish military and a Carlist militant. He is particularly known because of his role in the Andalusian anti-Republican Traditionalist conspiracy of the mid-1930s, his engagement in the July 1936 coup in Seville, and then for his position as a requeté commander in the Tercio Virgen de los Reyes battalion during the Spanish Civil War. Afterwards he became a professional officer in the army and retired in the rank of a major. After the war he did not engage openly in politics, yet among the Andalusian Carlists he remained an iconic point of reference. Some fictitious literary characters have been modeled after him.
