<p>Hi, António.<br>
</p>
<p>A museum dedicated to history is not the same as a "historic
museum". There are plenty of museums dedicated to history all over
the world, but they are not "historic".</p>
<p> There are many museums that are housed in historic buildings.
What is historic in those cases is the building, not the museum.
In my city there are several museums in buildings protected by
heritage laws. What is protected in such cases is the building,
not the museum. There are also hotels housed in castles or
military forts. In these cases, "historic" is the castle or the
fort, not the hotel.<br>
<br>
I don't think there are many museums or hotels susceptible to be
tagged as "historic" in OSM. Maybe there are some cases of
"historic hotel" and "historic museum" in the meaning of
"historic" that we are discussing here, but they must be very
exceptional, I think.</p>
<p>I know I am taking a risk in stating that I doubt there are many
museums susceptible to being tagged "historic" in OSM. I may be
wrong. Often you only know what is close to you. The world is very
big and strange! What people consider historic for their community
is not always the same.<br>
</p>
<p>Regards,</p>
<p>Daniel<br>

Seeing it from that perspective, I have to agree with that
ambiguity, but that also means that we should have a
museum=historic tag, which, curiously, has 3 uses in the database.<br>

<div>a historic museum? Or a historic palace? Or both? <br>

<div>Usually I would not combine building and museum in the
same object.<br>

In this matter, I agree with Paul. historic=* should
only be used as an attribute, not as a first level tag.
I don't see any reason to use it otherwise.</div>

<div>the reason is that it is an established tag for lots of
things, for example archaeological sites, memorials,
monuments, wayside shrines etc.</div>
