A magnetic photoresponsive hybrid material is prepared by intercalation of a switchable trans‐azobenzene‐4,4′‐dicarboxylate guest in the interlamellar space offered by a ferromagnetic Co 2+ Al 3+ ‐layered double hydroxide (LDH) host. Magnetic switching is triggered by compression/modification of the in‐plane structure coupled the guest's isomerization causing a change in the magnetization of 27%.
