Haribo Plant in Bonn

Does anyone have info on the Haribo gummy bear plant in Bonn? Do they have a plant tour or museum? Thanks

I've been to Bonn a couple of times and never heard of a tour, but I wasn't really looking for it either.

public tours in production facilities that produce food items are extremely rare as the requirements to adhere to hygiene legislations are very strict. Therefore, Haribo refers to the "International Food Standard (IFS) and does not offer any tours: Bietet HARIBO Werksbesichtigungen an? Für die Herstellung von HARIBO-Produkten gelten extrem hohe und international genormte Hygiene- und Qualitätsstandards. Dieser so genannte „International Food Standard" (IFS) dient dazu, ein Höchstmaß an Lebensmittelsicherheit für die Verbraucher zu gewährleisten. Das heißt leider aber auch, dass zum Schutz der gesamten Produktions- und Abfüllprozesse keine Besuchergruppen durch die Fabrikhallen geführt werden dürfen. Wir bitten daher alle HARIBO-Fans um Verständnis, dass wir grundsätzlich keine Werksbesichtigungen anbieten. Alternatively, Katjes does have a production facility in Potsdam that is specifically designed for public tours.

I'm surprised that nobody else wondered what the tree or bush from which the gummi bears are harvested looks like. How many plants must they have to get so many gummi bears off them all the time....
