to indicate what? That there is a museum that is about something that was there before at the same place? 
That there was a prison camp there that is now used as a museum or memorial site? 
Usual tagging is probably historic=prison_camp

I looked it up, there are actually 5 of them already https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/tags/historic=prison_camp

there are also 149 abandoned:amenity=prison_camp
these are ok if the site is abandoned, but they are not correct if there is maintenance going on and people caring for the place, as I would expect from a museum site

Cheers Martin
