Orff's Carmina Burana was pretty good. It's one of the few German opera peices that I like. I also like "The Planets" (I know it's not opera, but I'll post my thoughts on it here anyway). I'm more of a Carmen fan myself. Georges Bizet interpreted that story wonderfully.
Verdi's Rigoletto is also another one of my all-time favorites. I don't know how anyone can like German opera more than Italian opera. The Italians have it down. Much more passionate and artistic. Not as cold and rigidly structured as the Germans.
