Santa Claus' name in German is der Weihnachtsmann. The idea of Santa Claus is alien to German Christmas celebrations.

In Germany where do children leave their letters for christkind?

Well they would have traditionally left the letters on the windowsill for Christkind to take and then she would leave little presents for them but now I'm pretty sure they have mail boxes to Christkind just like here in America when we send our letters to Santa. There are pictures on Google of the little postmen and postwomen helping Christkind by picking up all the childrens letters and delivering them to her house.
