Pokemon has a storied history of this! Pokemon RGBY/FRLG/LGPE have a pretty simple one, Pokemon RSE/ORAS have an ocean science museum and a space museum. In ORAS the first gym is also done up to double as a paleontological museum as well! DPPT have a coal museum, BW and B2W2 have small art galleries, XY have a full fledged art museum, and SWSH… have a vault with historical artifacts, I guess? Some examples fit better than others but I don’t know I feel like Pokemon does this often to some degree and I’ve enjoyed the edutainment asides.
Bioshock Infinite's Clash in the Clouds DLC has a museum with unused Bioshock assets, concept art, and other stuff related to the development of the Bioshock titles.
