Wetting of porous templates by multi‐component mixtures followed by demixing and controlled morphology ripening is a universal method to prepare nanotubes with tailored wall morphologies (see Figure). This is demonstrated here exemplarily by means of palladium nanotubes with a specific nano‐roughness and porosity.
