At the end of Wilhelminenstrasse, you'll find the Alice Obelisk, which stands in front of the portico of St. Ludwig's Church. Unsurprisingly, in Darmstadt, it's richly decorated with Art Nouveau ornaments!

The Alice Monument, also known as the Alice Obelisk, is a monument in Darmstadt. It stands north of the Catholic main church of St. Ludwig and commemorates Grand Duchess Alice. The Alice monument was erected in 1902 based on a joint design by the sculptor Ludwig Habich and the architect Adolf Zeller. Stylistically, the monument belongs to Art Nouveau.
