Hi Andreas,
as far as I know, some people do protect them some doesn't. I have seed many bananas just loosing their leaves in winter but not the stem. I will leave my bananas unprotected this winter, except for the little ensete, which I will mulch and cover with something, so the don't get frezen.
LAst year, we had a very mild winter, my Sago Palms lost their leaves but resprout in spring. Alocasia Odora, same thing.
