Thank you Graham, me setup is based on the blog posts you suggested. I 
started out with the ProxyPass not inside of Location and then tried all 
kinds of combinations, with no success. I had tried the following:

                ProxyPass               /bla 
"http://srv-lab-t-495.zhaw.ch:8001/";
                ProxyPassReverse        /bla 
"http://srv-lab-t-495.zhaw.ch:8001/";
                RequestHeader set X-Forwarded-Proto "https"
 
Any other ideas on what the issue could be?
