From my own experience, Germany has no elite universities.
I was under the impression that the Max Planck Society and Helmholtz Association are fairly comparable to elite universities in the US or GB in most but being called university.
Agreed that their research is decent, but they are post-graduate institutes and have no undergraduate students.
