Matzoh represents the unleavened bread that the Jews in Egypt took with them. They were baking bread, but in their haste to leave the land, they did not have time to let the bread rise before baking and it became cracker-like, and was referred to as Matzoh (Exodus ch.12). See also:

When the Israelites escaped from Egypt, they didn't have time to let the dough for their bread rise before baking it. Therefore, we eat matzoh to remember this.
