If your fan is noisy, it is too small. You want large and slow-turning. Permanently installed ceiling fans (up to 1.8m diameter) are the gold standard, but not practical for everyone. There are large (up to 750mm diameter) pedestal fans available here, where temperatures regularly exceed 40C in summer, but I don't know what is sold in Germany.

Or you know, use fanless air ventilators...

My desktop computer has a very loud fan and I've found that over time I've become unable to sleep without the sound of it. That computer also tends to make my room about 5 to 10 degrees (F) warmer than the rest of the apartment, which might be part of why I tend to get into arguments with my roommate about the thermostat.

Have you ever listened to one of those Dyson things? They employ jets of high velocity air, and are far from quiet. Fanless is a very dubious claim anyway. They have internal fans to generate the air-jets; you just can't see them.

I am too poor, so no. I always wanted to try them though.
