Jörg,
You can start with the examples on the Stata website.
http://www.stata.com/support/faqs/graphics/gph/graphdocs/horizontal-overlaid-twoway-bar-plots/index.html
http://www.stata.com/support/faqs/graphics/gph/graphdocs/horizontal-bar-chart-with-multiple-bars-graphed-over-another-variable/
Let's modify the second graph to draw the data like in the first graph.
. webuse citytemp
. replace tempjan = -1 * tempjan
. collapse tempjan tempjuly, by(region)
. twoway bar tempjan region, horizontal || bar tempjuly region,
horizontal ylabel(1 "NE" 2 "N Cntrl" 3 "South" 4 "West", angle(0))
ytitle("") xlabel(-50 "50" 0 "" 50 "50")
