If you look at the XML schema, i.e. http://geoportal.geodaten.sachsen-anhalt.de/geodatenportal/servlet/gtEntryPoint?&REQUEST=DescribeFeatureType&VERSION=1.0.0&SERVICE=WFS&TYPENAME=featureSet_704
the optional field VERWALTUNG should contain the geometry. Apparently these are not filled in the dataset that the WFS uses. So you are doing nothing wrong, and I think you should contact the maintainer of the WFS to ask if VERWALTUNG is present in any feature or that it is always non-existant.
