Muotathal

Tierced in fess Gules in the sinister chief a cross couped Argent a bar wavy of this Last then Or a mountain range Azure.
Christopher Southworth

The emblem shows the emblem of the Schwyz canton in the upper part and the two symbols of the municipality of Muotathal, the Muota river and the mountains, in the lower part. Muotathal is named after its valley Muotatal, which is named after the Muota river. Muota was formed of Muot (anger, rage) and Aa, Ach (river), so it means raging river.
