I'd suggest editing your question and adding the comment and the JavaScript tag, also if you could try to reword your question to make it clear what it is that you are trying to achieve.

I'm not certain what it is that you are trying to do, but given your comment references JavaScript I'll assume it's something like this;

<div class="alphabetical-kategorie-entry">

  <h2 class="">

    <a class="" href="https://www.maceus.com/Agricultural-machinery/ci-4">

      Agricultural machinery

      <span class="">348</span>

    </a>

  </h2>

</div>

You'll need to give the anchor an Id.

Then access the text content using JavaScript as follows;

var x = document.querySelector("body > div > h2 > a").childNodes[0].textContent;

console.log(x);
