Juan Díaz de Garayo is featured in Pío Baroja's 1932 novel La Familia de Errotabo, where it is inaccurately stated that he was the first person executed by Gregorio Mayoral (1863–1928). Mayoral, a notable executioner during Spain's Restoration period, is historically known for executing Michele Angiolillo, the assassin of Spanish Prime Minister Cánovas del Castillo in 1897, among others. In reality, Mayoral's first execution occurred in 1892.[citation needed]
Garayo is also a central character in Tomás Salvador's novel Cuerda de Presos, which won Spain's National Prize for Literature in 1953. This novel was later adapted into a film by Pedro Lazaga in 1956. The story depicts the fictional arrest of Garayo in León and his subsequent journey back to Vitoria under the guard of two Guardia Civil officers. In actual events, Garayo never left the Basque Country.[citation needed]
