Matt

Few communities in Glarus have a history as closely tied to municipal consolidation as Matt. The settlement lies in the Sernf valley, where the Sernf follows a narrow Alpine corridor beneath steep, wooded and grassy slopes. Until 2010, Matt was an independent municipality; it joined Glarus Süd in 2011, when the canton replaced many local communes with three larger municipalities. Its rural setting is shaped by mountain farming and high pastures above the valley floor. The wider Glarus region is also renowned for folded Alpine rock formations that have helped geologists understand mountain building.
