Run
    texexec --make de
first and put
% interface=de
on top of your file.

After that, the document compiles here, but I was not able to figure
out what command is used for \section/\subject in German.

You need to run
    context --make de
but it didn't work here either. I guess that you are the first user
(apart from Hans, maybe) who has ever tried using mkiv with
non-English interface, so you might need a bit of patience to get the
problems solved.
