Google Maps gives you a virtual tour of Bruce Wayne’s mansion (and Batcave)

Add as a preferred source on Google

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice appears on track for a record-breaking debut weekend, despite poor reviews. Whether you’ve seen the new superhero movie or not, you can take a virtual tour through Bruce Wayne’s mansion and (mild spoiler alert) Batcave, thanks to Google Maps.

“Bruce Wayne’s Residence” is located in Orion Township, Michigan, on Google Maps. Virtual visitors can take a 360-degree, Street View tour inside the stylish lakeside mansion about 40 miles north of Detroit. Double-clicking around will zoom you around, sometimes a bit jarringly, take a gander at certain areas in the Wayne residence.

It doesn’t take long to figure out how to fly through a dark corridor to the Batcave, where you can take a close look at the new Batmobile. From there, you can access the staircase where Robin’s suit (featuring the Joker’s graffiti) and some of Batman’s tools are on display, or head upstairs to the billionaire’s high-tech lab.

To add another layer of entertainment to the promotional Google Maps landmark, there are about 320 reviews of “Bruce Wayne’s Residence,” which currently has 4.8 stars. Reading through some of the fake reviews is amusing:

Google Maps has a history of intentional and unintentional attention-getting quirks. Users also get in on the fun by creating their own flavors of Google Maps or dedicating an entire site to pointing out humorous Street View scenes.

EXCLUSIVE: Here’s why Wildwood is the best animated movie of the year
Laika’s Wildwood is a stop-motion masterpiece and one of the best animated films ever
Prue riding on an eagle in the film Wildwood.

Laika has delivered multiple animated classics like Coraline, ParaNorman, and Kubo and the Two Strings. But with Wildwood, the studio delivered a revolutionary magnum opus that showcases the best of stop-motion storytelling. Directed by Travis Knight (Masters of the Universe), this movie follows teenager Prue (Elizabeth Peyton Lee) as she and her friend Curtis (Jacob Tremblay) venture into a magical forest to rescue her baby brother from a murder of crows sent by the evil sorceress Alexandra (Carey Mulligan).

2026 saw the release of multiple animated hits, including Hoppers, Toy Story 5, The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, Avatar Aang: The Last Airbender, GOAT, and Forgotten Island. However, with its mature story, realistic characters, and jaw-dropping animation, Wildwood has proven itself the top contender for Best Animated Feature at this year's Oscars.

According to Futurism, the film's reported $1.5 million production budget landed on more than 10,000 screens. Yet it pulled in only about $181,000, averaging roughly $20 per screen, making the budget difficult to recover.

Grok’s AI-generated Odyssey series is seven minutes of nothing happening beautifully
The landscapes look convincing. The fake Hugh Jackman and Instagram-face amalgamation playing Penelope are harder to forgive.
Uniform ships Odyssey by Grok

Some of the best shots in Grok Imagine’s AI-made Odyssey don’t contain actors. Ancient landscapes stretch into the distance. Close-ups of grimy hands suggest people who have touched something rougher than a keyboard. For a few seconds, the illusion holds.
