With regard to former prisons, or POW / Concentration camps, how should
they be tagged?

https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Tag:amenity%3Dprison#Disused_prisons.3F

As I asked there, is historic=building + tourism=attraction + name=Old
Bannockburn Jail correct, or should there also be a reference to
disused:amenity=prison, or maybe abandoned: ?

Thanks

Graeme
