Yes, you enter into the EU from a publically known unsafe country

At the airport, yes. Outside the airport, 99% will be closed.

There is a wonderful tool called "the Internet" and Munich airport has a website - amazingly even in English language. Searching for the word "shower" will give wonderful results (Unfortunately not about the price, however, I would expect this to be in an affordable range).
