Most of what is in your controller should not be necessary. I am also a little concerned about the database structure you are using as to why you would perform a task like shown in your controller. The following should be all you need:

public function alterGeschichte(Request $request)
{
    Geschichte::updateOrCreate(
       ['id' => 1],
       ['id' => 1, 'geschichte_text1' => $request->geschichte_text1]
    );

    Geschichte::updateOrCreate(
       ['id' => 2],
       ['id' => 2, 'geschichte_text2' => $request->geschichte_text2]
    );

    Geschichte::updateOrCreate(
       ['id' => 3],
       ['id' => 3, 'geschichte_text3' => $request->geschichte_text3]
    );

    return redirect('/geschichte');
}

If these are creating new records it is most likely because there is no record with those ID's.
