History

 
Final logo as Bruno Gmünder Verlag

Bruno Gmünder Verlag was founded in Berlin in 1981 by Bruno Gmünder and Christian von Maltzahn. The publishing house was best known for Männer, a gay male lifestyle magazine, and the Spartacus International Gay Guide, the best-selling travel guidebook for gay men in the world. Bruno Gmünder had purchased the latter in 1986 following financial difficulties with the former owner John D. Stamford,[3] as well as increasing evidence that the Guide was being used by paedophiles to abuse children in developing countries.[4][5] Under Bruno Gmünder the Guide significantly reduced the pro-paedophilia content, though various aspects remained during the period 1987–1994.[6][non-primary source needed]

In October 2012, the Bruno Gmünder Group offered a "bounty" of €15,000 for information leading to the investigation and final conviction of the operators of the right-wing extremist and homophobic blog kreuz.net.[7] The Roman Catholic theologian David Berger has taken over the coordination of the resulting campaign Stoppt kreuz.net. In a letter to the German Bishops' Conference, the group asked them to support the campaign.[8]

The company declared bankruptcy in 2014, but was purchased by private investor Frank Zahn.[citation needed] When Zahn died unexpectedly in February 2017 the company again declared bankruptcy.[9] The retail division and four retail outlets became Bruno's GmbH,[1] while the publishing arm was acquired by Salzgeber in 2018 and merged into Männerschwarm Verlag.[2]
