Hufvudstadsbladet (abbr. HBL) is the highest-circulation Swedish-language newspaper in Finland. Its headquarters is located in Helsinki, the capital of Finland.[2] The name of the newspaper translates approximately into "Journal of the Capital",[3] hufvudstad (modern spelling huvudstad) being the 19th-century Swedish spelling for capital. The newspaper is informally also called Husis or Höblan.
