80k hits. I'm suggesting promoting this from enamdict. There are several "徴古館" around Japan, most notably the 神宮徴古館 in Ise. No dictionary has it, but it seems to have a nuance of being a museum of old things (but then aren't most museums?)
It could stay on in enamdict, but I feel it's more than just a named entity.
