7,500 Strangers Just Bought A Crumbling French Chateau Together


Dartagnans is a French crowdfunding platform that aims to use crowdfunding as a way to protect the “cultural heritage” of France. Most recently, a fundraiser for a historic castle succeeded in raising 500,000 euros, which will go toward restoring the heritage site that dates back to the 13th century. Though it’s not the most traditional way to restore old buildings, the platform has had several successes in this realm.
