Which document are you taking to Germany?
Choose the document and the region of issue: the chain of steps appears at once.
The apostille goes on the original document (or on a notarised copy); the document is then translated by a sworn translator in Germany.
A diploma may additionally require a recognition procedure (Anerkennung) at the competent authority of the federal state.
