They are information plaques, to signal street names. Every city,
town and village has them.<br>
There can be some of them with centuries old or so and considered
touristic, but that's not what they were made for.<br>
<br>
I would prefer something more specific, like
information=street_plaque + inscription=* but I'm surprised there's
nothing already for this.<br>

<div> Normally, they just have the name of the street, but
in the cases where the name is the name of a person, is
common to have other relevant informations, like you can
see in the pictures and in Stefan's example.<br>
They're mostly plaques in a wall, but they can also be
detached, when there's no place to attach them to.<br>
<br>
I found this undocumented tag:<br>
<a
href="https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/tags/information=plaque#overview"
target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/tags/information=plaque#overview</a><br>

It could be an option.<br>

<div>That could work.</div>

</div>
<div>Looks like they're usually associated with
tourism=information</div>

<div>Are your plaques intended for tourists, or residents?</div>
