Hello, I'm trying to understand how XML import works and I encountered my first problem that I can't solve by myself.

But indesign does not return the value "Kursart"

Thank you very much for your help.

Hopefully that makes sense. Make sure you choose View > Structure > Show Tag Markers to be able to see this.
