Amancio Ortega, the founder of the Inditex fashion group, has made a significant move in the world of real estate. The Spanish billionaire has acquired the Torre Picasso skyscraper, a notable building in Madrid, through his company, Pontegadea.

The Torre Picasso stands 157 meters tall and boasts a total surface area of 121,000 square meters. Located on Paseo de la Castellana, it is one of the most sought-after properties in the Spanish capital.

The financial details of the deal have not been disclosed, but reports suggest that Ortega made a 400 million euro investment. The Torre Picasso was previously owned by FCC.
