Hello,

I'm currently importing a list of Architectural Monuments into OSM. The 
available information is the name, the architect, sometimes the construction 
period. But how should I tag it? I was thinking about three possibilities:

1) historic=architectural_monument: Some buildings are old, but most are recent 
buildings. And also the relevance seems to be sometimes not big enough to 
justify a historic tag.

2) tourism=attraction,  tourism=attraction:type=architectural_monument: Some 
buildings are from famous architects, and might be tourist attractions. But 
most might be more interesting to architectural interested than to normal 
tourists.

3) building=architectural_monument:  This is my preferred choice. As it's the 
building itself which is a monument. But it conflicts with other possible uses 
of the building type. E.g. if building=school or building=station, it's very 
likely to be among the architectural_monuments


There is as well "man_made" ... but I do not think this fits into a city.


Thank you for your thoughts!
