I am a student at the University of Stuttgart, Germany and I have a 1 year national visa for Germany and now as my holidays are ahead I was looking if my German visa is sufficient to travel to Ireland for some 10 days.
I am a citizen of Republic of Armenia.

Summary: Your German visa is not enough, you need an Irish short-stay visa.
Ireland is not part of the Schengen area, so a German national visa is not enough to enter the country. Since Armenia is on the list of “countries whose nationals are visa requiredâ€Â, you do generally need an Irish visa to go to Ireland on holidays.
There is however an exemption for holders of student visas from other EU/EEA countries, which could cover you. But that's only when going to Ireland “as part of a group school excursion†so it probably does not apply to the trip you are currently planning.
