I'ld say a bumblebee, Bombus. Those are difficult to ID from photo. Your photo gives the impression of largely black with red-tipped abdomen. If that is correct, I'ld say Bombus lapidarius. Regrettably, there is no hymenoptera.info, something I would greatly enjoy 
Thanks for your attention Cor Zonneveld |

You can't say for sure from this photo that it is B lapidarius. There are other very similar species with red tipped abdomens, and there is not enough detail in this photo to rule them out.

Bombus lapidarius is the most probable species, to about 98%. In lowlands of northern Germany, no other red tipped Bombus comes into account, or these are very rare. Also B. lapidarius from a main aspect is longer and narrower than similar species, and similar to the species on the photo. Regards, Christian |

Looking at the size and shape of the abdomen, I would think it's a cuckoo-bumblebee (former genus Psithyrus). Better wait for a specialist... |

Look to the hindleg in the first picture. Its a typical large and broad hindleg of a Bombus s.str.. Bombus (former Psithyrus) rupestris, what do you probably mean, looks different. Regards, Christian |

To all contributers, thanks for help. I think Bombus lapidarius is the most probable identification. I have several hymenoptera, which I am not sure about. I hope for further support. My E-Contact was an phone contact was broken the last two days, so this answer was waiting that long period. Sorry. Josef |
