Greta Thunberg, the climate activist, was carried away and briefly detained by police Tuesday in a German village where protesters have been opposing an expanded coal mine, officials said.

Ms. Thunberg, 20 years old, joined dozens of demonstrators in the village of Lutzerath, about 75 miles west of Frankfurt, since the weekend, said Charly Dietz, a spokeswoman for Ende Gelände. She and other demonstrators had been blocking the front of a coal mine and didn’t leave after the police had asked them to, Ms. Dietz said.
