Accepted answer
UPDATE: went through geld-fuer-flug.de and they've paid me €31.83, 90% of the refundable amount (they usually pay 75% but I found a promo code to get an extra 20%).

In theory any charges and taxes which were levied can be claimed back from the airline. In practice however it depends upon the airline and their T&Cs.
Often in such cases their T&Cs might state that certain levies will not be refunded, or may only be refunded on certain types of tickets.
Even then most airlines will levy an administration fee for processing any such claims. This may vary from 20 -> 50 -> 100 EUROS, which again might vary depending on the type of claim and the type of ticket.
As such, then normally trying to make a claim might mean that you get nothing back, very little, or could end up out of pocket!
So you need to check the T&Cs of your airline in detail. But my guess would be that for such a route the fees are not worth your while to try to reclaim.
