A spokesman for police in the nearby town of Gotha, said the prop-powered plane had landed just before 4 pm (1400 GMT) just before it hit people along the runway and then struck a children's carousel before coming to a halt.
An Eisenach police spokeswoman said the carousel had not been in operation when the plane hit it.
"The shooting stand was completely crushed, the candy floss stand was badly damaged," Karen Koehler said.
One man was killed and 10 other people were hurt, three seriously. Earlier, immediately following the accident, Koehler gave the number of injured as 15, but it was later revised down.
Another seven suffered what Koehler called light injuries, including two children aged 9 and 14.
Koehler said the event was cancelled and police were still trying to determine how the plane hit the spectators.
The name of the pilot or the type of plane was not immediately released.
