Ahh yes, those are always fun.

Command-Ctrl-Space brings up the small emoji interface.
In the top right corner there's an icon to toggle the full character viewer: 
 
enter a lower case L in the search box
lower right part of the window now shows "related characters" (no idea what it's called in the German UI)
scroll down in that and a couple lines down you'll see the ℓ - if you need this more often, you can add it to your favorites which makes this much quicker.
