Hobøl is a municipality in Østfold county, Norway. The administrative centre of the municipality is the village of Elvestad. Hobøl is situated about 40 kilometres (25 mi) southeast of Oslo. The parish of Haabøl was established as a municipality on 1 January 1838 (see formannskapsdistrikt).
The largest village in Hobøl is Tomter, whose train station is served by Indre Østfoldbanen. Other villages in the municipality are Knapstad, Ringvoll, and the middle part of the municipality which is called Hobøl.The municipality (originally the parish) is named after the old Hobøl farm (Old Norse: Hóbœli), since the first church was built here. The first element is hór or hár meaning “high”. The last element is bœli which means “farm”. Thus the name means “the farm lying on a high ground”. Prior to 1889 the name was written “Haabøl”.
