Regulator said Meta's 'lack of cooperation' and the large number of people affected contributed to size of the fine.
The country's data protection authority said Meta accessed users' photos without their "specific" consent.
The social media giant is accused of not informing 20 million users it had access to their photos.
Meta had access to Android users' photos and videos through a Facebook app feature that suggested content from users' personal galleries that they could post, the authority said in a statement.
