Museum piece crossword clue
9 Across · WSJ Crossword, October 28, 2026 · 5 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Museum piece” is RELIC. It appears as 9 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of October 28, 2026, a Wednesday puzzle titled “Jump Scares” by Mike Shenk, and it fills 5 squares running left to right from row 1, column 11 of the 15×15 grid.
The clue is a straightforward definition, so the answer is a direct synonym or a factual match for the words as written. The entry begins with R and ends with C, and contains 2 vowels and 3 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Down entries should be enough to lock it in. Wednesday puzzles sit mid-week on the difficulty curve, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
