Bitcoin Cash accidentally sent to Bitcoin address. Can I get them back?

I managed my Bitcoins Cash in a Electrum Cash wallet on my PC. From there, I accidentally sent them to another internet based wallet, but didn't notice that this wallet is for Bitcoin and not Bitcoin Cash. In the Bitcoin Cash blockchain I can see that the transaction actually took place and that the adress now owns the Bitcoin Cash. The problem is, that this address is a Bitcoin Cash address, and I cannot get access to it.

Is there a way to reclaim this Bitcoin Cash address? I own the address on Bitcoin, but not on Bitcoin Cash.
