The problem is that you are specifying the order_by on the wrong side
of the relationship (ie on the ManyToOne side). You need to place the
order_by on the OneToMany side, and in your precise example, that
means, on the backref.

    mitarbeiter = relation(
        mitarbeiterCL,
        uselist=False,
        backref=backref('abwesenheiten', order_by=abwesenheit_table.c.datumvon)
    )
