The orphanage in which Matt Murdock grew up in “Marvel’s Daredevil” is St. Agnes’. After his father, Jack Murdock, was killed, young Matt was placed in the Catholic orphanage in Hell’s Kitchen, New York.
St. Agnes’ becomes an important part of Matt’s origin story. There, he develops a close relationship with Father Lantom, who offers guidance as Matt struggles with blindness, grief, and the heightened senses he gains after his childhood accident. The orphanage also connects him to Sister Maggie Grace, whose deeper relationship with Matt is revealed later in the series.
A common mix-up is confusing St. Agnes’ with the church where Matt later goes for confession and advice. The orphanage is also associated with Daisy “Skye” Johnson in the wider Marvel television continuity, which helped make it a recurring shared location. The name may appear as “Saint Agnes Orphanage” or “St. Agnes’ Orphanage,” but these refer to the same place.
