Why it belongs in ORBIS
Munich's dedicated crime-fiction bookshop, at Corneliusstrasse 31 in the Gartnerplatzviertel; operating since 2000, it stocks mystery and crime titles, plus regional Alpine crime fiction, and regularly hosts author readings.
Glatteis is a specialist crime-fiction bookshop in Munich's Gartnerplatzviertel, at Corneliusstrasse 31, near the corner of Baaderstrasse. The shop has been operating under this name since 2000 and focuses exclusively on crime and mystery fiction, from Alpine regional whodunits to short-story collections, alongside related cookbooks, comics, and calendars. It regularly hosts author readings, often paired with wine and bread, including charity events tied to World Book Day. A 2008 obituary credits Gabriele Fauser as the shop's founder; the business appears to have continued operating under new stewardship since her death.
