The "Neue Krug", a popular restaurant on the outskirts of Detmold, was built at the beginning of the 18th century as part of the baroque new town.

In 1709, Count Friedrich Adolph zur Lippe gave his wife Amalie a site on the Friedrichstal canal to build a jug; in 1716, a new brandy house with a brewery and a pleasure house was built here. The jug was privatized in 1852.

The current building was erected by the brewery owner Heinrich Dütemeyer in 1889 by the Detmold master builder Knollmann; parts of an older building were preserved at the rear. In 1898, Dütemeyer added the neighboring summer theater, which was reopened in 2003.

The jug building from 1889 is a richly designed half-timbered historicist building with corner turrets and an open loggia in Rhenish half-timbered forms. It was modeled on the historic "Altes Haus" restaurant in Bacharach am Rhein. Inside the Neues Krug, a magnificent buffet with a bar in the neo-Renaissance style and several large-format oil paintings depicting the Hermann monument and historical scenes have been preserved.

The Neues Krug is currently home to the Thai restaurant "Ban Phaithong"
