Two men died when their car crashed into a lorry on a slick stretch of autobahn heading towards Munich in the southern state of Bavaria, police said.
In the Ore Mountains in the southeast of the country, a 10-year-old boy was killed when the bus he was riding in hit a snow plough and then a tree.
And in the southwestern state of Baden-Wuerttemberg, a 57-year-old woman died when her car careened into a bus.
Munich airport, Germany's second largest, said on its website that there were still "severe restrictions in air traffic" following closures and repeated cancellations since the weekend.
The flight schedule was "severely reduced due to the extreme weather conditions".
Munich airport closed on Saturday as snow swept the south of Germany, stranding thousands of passengers.
It was again shut on Tuesday morning because of "freezing rain" that made take-offs and landings hazardous.
