Built by Alan Wayne towards the end of the 19th Century, the manor was built over a giant cave.After the deaths of Thomas and Martha Wayne, Bruce Wayne the last surviving of the Wayne's was raised by Alfred Pennyworth, the family's butler and Bruce became sole owner of the manor itself. There were specific instructions left by Martha in her will, that Alfred would become guardian of Bruce and that her brother Philip Kane was not allowed to raise Bruce or gain deed of the manor.
After Hush infiltrated Wayne Enterprises and sold off the company to outside investors disguised as Bruce Wayne. Wayne Manor was purchased by Gotham council and used to hold all the inmates of the recently destroyed Arkham Asylum.
After what was left of Wayne Enterprises was bought out by Powers International, Geri Powers bought back the manor and had all the Asylum inmates removed from the manor and reverted it back to a residential state. She then gifted the manor back to Bruce.
Following the defeat of Mr Bloom and the return of Bruce Wayne to the role of Batman, Bruce and Alfred left the Brownstone in Gotham and returned to Wayne Manor full time.
