Locals still call the village by its traditional name - ils draguns, or "the dragons". The place's coat of arms bears an image of Saint Mauritius, after whom the village is named. St. Moritz gained worldwide fame as a spa resort and winter sports attraction (Wintersportplatz) after the Winter Olympics were held here in 1928 and 1948.
