Puerto del Suspiro del Moro or Pass of the Moor's Sigh is a mountain pass in the Spanish Sierra Nevada, at an elevation of 865m above the sea level.
The pass is located among the National Parks of Tejeda, Almijara and Alhama, and the road to reach the pass (Carretera de la Cabra) has a total length of 34 km.
Muhammad XII, the last Moorish sultan of Granada, and his court are said to have crossed this Alpujarras pass at 860 m in height, after being ejected from Granada by the Catholic Monarchs in 1492. It is named so to describe the moment when he loudly sighed while looking back and longing for his Granada palaces, and in particular the Alhambra, an act which moved his mother to whip him with the famous "Now you weep like a woman over what you could not defend as a man."
