I don't think that there are more than in any other European country.

There might be more because Germany was not united during the middleages. So it was only natural that dukes fought against each other. Therefore they were in need of castles to secure the area.

Do all medieval castles have walls?

The ones that were organized as Mont and Bailey castles usually still do because they began with walls, but there are castles with no walls. I can think of several that I have been to in Germany. Peterhof in Russia built by Peter the Great has no walls, but does have extensive gardens. The Hermitage also in Russia was the winter palace of Catherine the Great has no walls. Linderhof in Germany has no walls. Many castles and palaces we see today are rebuilt and remodeled by various people through the centuries.
