Risch is a municipality in the canton of Zug in Switzerland. It is also promoted as Risch-Rotkreuz. Four villages (Rotkreuz, Risch, Buonas and Holzhäusern) belong to the municipality Risch. On 24 November 2007 it was decided to promote the municipality as Risch-Rotkreuz. The change was made because the village Rotkreuz has become much bigger than Risch.
