I wonder how to repair a plastered facade, would like to fix it myself, but it might be difficult, behind it looks like straw, should there be an air gap or should the plaster be in contact.
 
It looks like it's a wooden house with a reed mat, plaster with a roughcast on top.
It's not difficult to repair but a hell to learn.
Excuse the expression, but achieving the same surface so it's not noticeable is a feat for the most experienced.
 
You probably have quite a lot ahead of you, it won't be possible to fix just a small part as the rest is likely bad too. Then your fönsterbleck also look like they need updating, among other things.

Suggest an assessment of a serious mason with good references who has worked successfully with older facades. It's not uncommon to find inexperienced "know-it-alls" or frauds in the industry. Impossible to determine the extent of work based on a picture. If the rest of the facade is in good condition, the damage can be repaired with fairly small means. However, it is crucial that the "right" materials and methods are used.

mmm It is likely moisture that has penetrated the facade along with frost bursts. I would be a bit worried about what it can do to the wood behind the wattle.
Then I agree this is a job for someone experienced in their field.

You are absolutely right that it is likely about frost damage. It can have different causes, penetrating water, unsuitable sealing paint/surface of the facade etc.
Local damage small job, wrong surface big job.
