Well, when Harry had his discussion with Nearly Headless Nick about
death, Nick told Harry that he knows "nothing of the secrets of
death", but then goes on to say "I believe learned wizards study the
matter in the Department of Mysteries--".  

This is probably what Nick is talking about; a place which has been
devised to study death. Perhaps even speak to the dead. Because of the
amphitheater-like setup of the room, it may be some sort of study hall
or, perhaps, an observation room like those you might see in a
teaching hospital.  

Just my thoughts!
