Mark Zuckerberg Acquires 440 Acre Strancally Castle Estate in Ireland Mark Zuckerberg has made a significant move in reinforcing Meta's commitment to the European market by purchasing Strancally castle, an 18th century gothic style mansion situated on a sprawling 440 acre estate in county Waterford.
The property was previously owned by Michael Alen Buckley and his wife Giancarla, who expressed gratitude for the opportunity to "save and restore" the castle.
The exact price paid for Strancally castle remains undisclosed, but estimates suggest it falls within the €20 30 million range – a fraction of the cost of Zuckerberg's 387ft superyacht.
