Koln Cathedral is beyond spectacular and then the rest of the city is riddled with them. Nice town with a good bit of shopping for the missus. The only place you can get authentic Kolsch beer straight from the source. Great country, enjoy.
Cologne is a 4 hour 30 minutes train ride from Munich even with the direct train. Salzburg is only 1 hour 30 minutes to 2 hours. Dachau is a very sobering but worthwhile experience not far from Munich. I agree with the posters who have recommended Rothernburg ob der Tauber.
You are of course right, I was thinking Frankfurt for some reason.
