I found the problem, I think. The dates inside the tasks/calendar follows the locale of the setting:
Global settings - Loacle and Time - select your preferred language.
If this is set to "default" aka "Englich (US)" you get the US date (with the weired twist of day/month), whatever you do in the rest of the settings accourding date/time format  in Locale and Time is ignored.
