It is the second time in just days the Swedish activist has been detained as she continues to protest against the demolition.
The previous incident took place on Sunday, when Thunberg refused to comply with a police request to leave the area.
Thunberg was heard saying the German government's compromise with the owner of the coal farm is a "shameful" arrangement.
