Here is the Klipsteingrab and Klipsteineiche Darmstädter Forstmann Philipp Engel von Klipstein. The Dachswiesenweg leads right past it.

Directly behind the Klipstein Grave stands the remains of what must have once been a magnificent oak tree, but it's not dead and still bears a few leaves. The crown, consisting of two sturdy branches, fell victim to Storm Skyril. It's said to be just over 400 years old, and its circumference is about 7 meters.

I could only give the exact location in a different location—so please also look for the Klipstein Grave. :)
