Abstract Metal‐halide perovskites are known for their strong and tunable luminescence. However, the synthesis of perovskite‐based particles with circularly polarized light emission (CPLE) remains challenging due to the complex interplay of metal‐ligand chemistries, crystallization patterns, and chirality transfer mechanisms. Achiral perovskites can be deposited on chiral “hedgehog” particles (CHIPs) with twisted spikes, producing chiroptically active materials with spectroscopic bands specific to the perovskite and chirality specific to the template CHIPs. Left‐ and right‐handed CPLE is engineered into complex particles comprised of a layer of perovskite deposited onto CHIPs coated with an intermediate silica layer. The spectral position of chiroptical bands, the optical asymmetryg‐factors, and single‐particle circularly polarized microscopy indicate that the observed CPLE is dominated by the post‐emission scattering from the twisted spikes of the parent particle. Templating luminescent nanofilms on CHIPs provides a simple pathway to a wide range of complex chiroptical materials; the dispersibility of the CHIPs in various solvents and the tunability of their chiral geometry enable their applications as single‐particle emitters with strong and controllable polarization rotation.
