trophy room

Champion's display space

A trophy room is a space dedicated to displaying awards, prizes, and mementos of achievement—typically hunting trophies, sports awards, or other symbols of accomplishment.

The term suggests pride in one's conquests, whether animal heads mounted on walls or championship cups on shelves: His trophy room was lined with deer antlers and elk heads.

In video games, a trophy room is a virtual space showing collected achievements.
