They are both natural. An example is if I were showing you on a map where Germany was. I could use both of your statements

Here is Germany also sounds fine, if you were pointing it out on a map for example.

Germany is here, because it follows the natural order of the English sentence structure: Subject (Germany) Verb (is) Adverb (here)
