I have these org-options set for export:
#+LANGUAGE: de
#+LATEX_HEADER: \usepackage[ngerman]{babel}
The usepackage line for babel is necessary, because Language: de is not recognized. With the above, I correctly get e.g. "Inhaltsverzeichnis" instead of "Contents". But the timestamp in the title remains the english one, namely "13 February 2011".
How do I change this? I did not find any option for this in the manual...
Thanks in advance

How did you set "the timestamp in the title"? Through #+TITLE? Through
#+DATE: ? There is something I miss here.
Thanks,

I am sorry. I am relatively new to all this. Please be patient... "the timestamp in the title" referred to the LaTeX title. I did not set a timestamp via #+DATE: %d %B %Y, because I thought org would take care of that, as it does often. I read some more in the manual and understood that #+LANGUAGE: de is only used for HTML export.
I thought #+LATEX_HEADER: \usepackage[ngerman]{babel} would result in a german style \today macro in the corresponding LaTeX file.
I should have experimented more, i.e. read the LaTeX export file for hints, then I would have seen that the default #+DATE: option is indeed %d %B %Y, which gets expanded to 14 February 2011 and inserted literally into the LaTeX \date macro, since I use an english locale.
I now use #+DATE: \today and it works as expected.
Sorry for the noise, my posts often end up in a kind of self-helping experience, but hints are always appreciated. Thanks Bastien for the push.

You're welcome. We are all patient here because we know it's often
a matter of better understanding what Org-mode *can* do, rather than
fixing bugs :)
