You have two problems:

1) When you assign a literal string to a variable, you must doubly quote the string, thus:

<xsl:variable name="stadt" select="'city'"/>

not as you have done:

<xsl:variable name="stadt" select="city"/>

2) A variable exists only within the scope where it was defined. Once you exit that scope (in your example, once the transformation exits the <xsl:if> element) the variable ceases to exist. You have two choices here:

2a) Put all the relevant templates and elements inside each <xsl:if> element.

2b) Define the templates once and invoke them inside each <xsl:if> by using <xsl:apply-templates> or <xsl:call-template>.
