Hello,
I have a Bresser 6in1 weather station and would like to run a website with WeeWx. Is it possible at all with this station? At the moment it sends its data to AWEKAS.
I know relatively little about Linux.

Greetings

I would get the SDR dongle and a WH-25 for pressure. Read this.

Or here is some talk about the driver.

IF you have the Bresser 6in1 with the PC console (Bresser PC 6 in 1 - 7002570) then the WS 6in1 driver fully supports this:

If you have the WiFi version then you need to get an SDR (software defined radio) and use the SDR weewx driver:

Or alternatively it may be possible to intercept the WiFi signal:

Hope this helps

I have the WIFI version. I have WeeWx running on a virtual machine and this on a Synology. This virtual machine has its own IP address, can I not enter this in the weather station? Or are only external addresses allowed there?

The advantage of WIFI is that the data is sent to a server, which you might think is the best prerequisite.  Why the diversions with a dongle?

The SDR dongle would be attached to your virtual server (usb passthrough) and collect the data from your weather station. Then WeeWx would process the data. Or give the interceptor driver a try. There is a bit of complexity with the interceptor.

How does the Interceptor get its data? Does it listen to the network or does it need a wifi antenna?
