PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a process for producing a ceramic porous body which consists of an inorganic skeleton and is provided with a pore structure having nanometer-scale pore size. SOLUTION: This production process comprises: using, as a template, a cluster selected from surfactant molecular clusters, clusters in each of which surfactant molecules and prescribed organic molecules coexist, and molecular clusters each consisting of different surfactant molecules; mixing the cluster with a ceramic material or ceramic material precursor to form a ceramic porous body precursor having an inorganic-organic structure; and removing the surfactant in the ceramic porous body precursor from it by photooxidation to produce the objective ceramic porous body provided with a pore structure having nanometer-scale pore size.
