If you downloaded El Capitan in the past then you can re-download it from the Purchases page in App Store. Otherwise, App Store won't permit a fresh download on a machine running a later version of macOS.

Thanks for all answers.
I managed it this way: Restored the system again, installed Java 8 supplied by Oracle, placed fake Java 6 docs at the place CS6 expects them and Finder, Illustrator, Photoshop runs again. I am happy!

OK, me again!
It looks like App Store "remembered" my original El Capitan download for another machine, eons ago. I should have used the "Purchased" button in App Store. Looks like problem has been solved. Anyway, thanks to those you took the time to read my original post.

We were all correct, you, ckuan, and me. I back pedalled by re-installing my previous version El Capitan V10.11.5, and my Safari reversed to V9.1.1. That indicated this Safari version to be part of the OS installation.
I then upgraded again to OS X V10.11.6, which also included Safari V9.1.2, part of OS installation.
At this stage I had never seen a separate offer on the App Store for a Safari update, and a search did not come up with any result either.
I then installed the security upgrade 2018-001 for El Capitan (there are several security upgrades by that number for other systems). After that installation, the separate Safari upgrade for V11.0.3 showed up in the App Store. I installed it to bring my system up todate.
Thanks for all your input.
