NOW i am trying the suggested way
* In controller test.pm > added the following (note the German Umlaut)
sub index : Private {
   my ( $self, $c ) = @_;
       $c->stash->{myname} = "\xFC"; # <--- German Umlaut
       $c->stash->{template} = 'test.tt2';
}

* made sure that encoding of controller "test.pm" and view template
"test.tt2" is *ASCII*

* starting server and going to url : __character is still garbled__

It seems to me that Template-Toolkit does no UTF-8-encoding of the
outputted variables.
