'Damselflies are insects of suborder Zygoptera in the order Odonata. They are similar to dragonflies, which constitute the other odonatan suborder, Anisoptera, but are smaller, have slimmer bodies, and most species fold the wings along the body when at rest'. (Wiki)

Hello @jmorth most probably it's Coenagrion puella, quite common in Germany and you're right it's a damselfly.
