    You can center horizontally et verticaly using 2 lines of CSS :

        text-align: center; /* center the link */
    line-height: 70px; /* match the height to align in the middle */

    Here’s the snippet:

    header {
    display: flex;
    justify-content: space-between;
    align-items: center;
    width: 100%;
    height: 70px;
    padding: 0px 10%;
    background-color: #EFEFEF;
}

.logo {
    cursor: pointer;
    text-decoration: none;
    color: #707070;
    font-family: 'Segoe UI', Tahoma, Geneva, Verdana, sans-serif;
}

.nav__links a,
.cta,
.overlay__content a {
    font-family: "Montserrat", sans-serif;
    font-weight: 500;
    color: #707070;
    text-decoration: none;
}

.nav__links {
    list-style: none;
    display: flex;
}

.nav__links li a {
    border: 1px solid black;
    width: 225px;
    height: 70px;
    float: left;
    text-align: center; /* center the link */
    line-height: 70px; /* match the height to align in the middle */
}

#active {
    border-bottom: 8px green solid;
}

.cta {
    padding: 9px 25px;
    background-color: rgba(0, 136, 169, 1);
    border: none;
    border-radius: 50px;
    cursor: pointer;
    transition: background-color 0.3s ease 0s;
}
    <body>
    <header>
        <a class="logo" href="/">filmfestwilsdruff.de</a>
        <nav>
            <ul class="nav__links">
                <li><a href="#" id="active">Home</a></li>
                <li><a href="#">blabla</a></li>
                <li><a href="#">blabla</a></li>
                <li><a href="#">blablabla</a></li>
            </ul>
        </nav>

    1) To Align Content

    Flexbox is great to align content vertically and horizontally.

    • Add display: flex to the parent element of the items to be centered
    • justify-content will align content on the x-axis (horizontal)
    • align-items will align content on the cross-axis (vertical)

    Append the following CSS styles to .nav__links li a

    .nav__links li a {
    display: flex;
    justify-content: center;
    align-items: center;
}

    2) To Align #active Bottom Border

    Using a box-shadow to replicate the bottom border with a value of inset so it’s inside the content element.

    #active {
    box-shadow: inset 0 -8px 0 green;
}

    header {
    display: flex;
    justify-content: space-between;
    align-items: center;
    width: 100%;
    height: 70px;
    padding: 0px 10%;
    background-color: #efefef;
}

.logo {
    cursor: pointer;
    text-decoration: none;
    color: #707070;
    font-family: "Segoe UI", Tahoma, Geneva, Verdana, sans-serif;
}

.nav__links a,
.cta,
.overlay__content a {
    font-family: "Montserrat", sans-serif;
    font-weight: 500;
    color: #707070;
    text-decoration: none;
}

.nav__links {
    list-style: none;
    display: flex;
}

.nav__links li a {
    display: flex;
    align-items: center;
    justify-content: center;
    
    border: 1px solid black;
    width: 225px;
    height: 70px;
    float: left;
}

#active {
    box-shadow: inset 0 -8px 0 green;
}

.cta {
    padding: 9px 25px;
    background-color: rgba(0, 136, 169, 1);
    border: none;
    border-radius: 50px;
    cursor: pointer;
    transition: background-color 0.3s ease 0s;
