Zuoz () is a municipality in the Maloja Region in the Swiss canton of the Grisons.

==History== Zuoz is first mentioned about 840 as Zuzes. Historically, Zuoz was the political center of the upper Engadin. It was the seat of the local bishop. But, it has long ago been supplanted by other Engadin villages such as St. Moritz and Samedan.
