I'm also from Germany and once I had the same problem. I think this has
something
to do with your locale settings. Run
locale
in your tty1 and do the same in a console in KDE. Then compare the results
and you
should see a difference I think. For example, "LANG=de_DE.UTF-8" in tty1
and
"LANG=de_DE.ISO-****" in KDE.

you are right. In tty1 it is "LANG=de_DE.UTF-8" and in the KDE console i got
this:
jochen@jochen-laptop:~$ locale
LANG=
LC_CTYPE="POSIX"
LC_NUMERIC="POSIX"
LC_TIME="POSIX"
LC_COLLATE="POSIX"
LC_MONETARY="POSIX"
LC_MESSAGES="POSIX"
LC_PAPER="POSIX"
LC_NAME="POSIX"
LC_ADDRESS="POSIX"
LC_TELEPHONE="POSIX"
LC_MEASUREMENT="POSIX"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="POSIX"
LC_ALL=
how to fix it in KDE?

That's interesting. I would have expected the other way around.
Either your LANG variable is not set globally and KDE does not know it
or KDE resets the variable.
To prevent the first situation I always set the LANG variable in /etc/environment like
this:
LANG=de_DE.UTF-8
If the problem still remains I'm not sure what to do. I know that you can set
KDE's default language via kcontrol under
"Regionaleinstellungen & ..."->"Land, Region & Sprache".
But I'm unsure if this option also affects "LANG".
Good luck!

I hope someone can help me.

P.S In the console under tty1 the Directory in written right
