Chromium lanthanide heterometallic wheel complexes {Cr 8 Ln 8 } (Ln=Gd, Dy and Y) with alternating metal centres are presented. Quantum Monte Carlo simulations reveal antiferromagnetic exchange‐coupling constants with an average of 2.1 K within the {Cr 8 Gd 8 } wheel, which leads to a large ground spin state ( S T =16) that is confirmed by magnetization studies up to 20 Tesla. The {Cr 8 Dy 8 } wheel is a single‐molecule magnet.
