Imbrancamento is a locality of the municipality of Frassinoro in the province of Modena. The term "Imbrancamento" derives from a pastoral tradition: it was in fact the custom to gather the flocks at this point to form a single "herd" before reaching the pastures of Tuscany. It seems that in ancient times those places were infested with brigands, so that it appeared safer to cross the pass by gathering the flocks coming from the surrounding valleys.
