Treating High Humidity in basement

Hello all,

We have moved into a new house and my system is in a basement with floor heat. I have high humidity in this room, sometimes 68%. What is a good dehumidifier system to use for when I am not in the room? I have ventilated the room for up to six hours which lowered the levels to 59%, what else should I do? Should I turn the floor heat off and turn the room into an iceberg and vent the windows in the evening before I use the room? Thanks.
PS. I am located in Germany

What do you mean a room De-humidifier is not poular and hard to get in U.S.? You can get them at any Home Depot, Lowes, Sears, Hardware stores......I have one in my current house, the house I bought has one and many friends have them, we have a drain hose hooked up to ours so you dont need to drain the pan.
Yhis a popular and easy to get solution, Semi's take on this puzzles me.
