LibGnome is the non-gui part of gnome... ok.

Well, yes and no. libgnome itself is the non-gui part of the larger
gnome library

The gnome library is like a extension to Gtk. It adds stuff that Gtk
doesn't offer.

Here is the detailed documentation:

http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/libgnome/book1.html

It adds for example a sound library, which gtk doesn't offer AFAIK.

Because Gtk 1 is so limited, using gnome library was a good option a
long time ago. But today, Gtk 2 includes everything we need, so there
is no reason to write a gnome/gtk2 widgetset.

Therefore gome is not a real Gui-Interface ?

That's correct. Gnome library extends Gtk, and thus depends on it.

Gtk docs are here:
