Likely access to the gutter for cleaning or repair.
Emergency exit in case of a fire. That’s where the fire fighters will pick you up.
So you can go smoke
There are also sometimes small platforms on the roofs which can be reached by the fire brigade with a ladder in case of fire. So maybe this is also an emergency exit.
Maybe required due to fire hazard protocol? German burocracy at its peak

Make it easier for Einbrecher.
Probably for the Schornsteinfeger /chimney sweep, to access the chimney. Our neighbor has some steps more rudimentary than the one in the picture, and the chimney sweep goes too al our roofs through this way.
it leads you to where you can contemplate your life choices
