Which Hogwarts house is associated with the founder Helga Hufflepuff?

Helga Hufflepuff founded the Hogwarts house named Hufflepuff.

In J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter world, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry was founded by four medieval witches and wizards: Godric Gryffindor, Helga Hufflepuff, Rowena Ravenclaw, and Salazar Slytherin. Each founder became associated with one of the school’s four houses.

Hufflepuff is traditionally linked with loyalty, patience, hard work, fairness, and dedication. Its emblem is a badger, and its house colors are yellow and black. The house’s common room is located near the kitchens, although the books provide fewer architectural details about it than about some other parts of Hogwarts.

Students are assigned to houses by the Sorting Hat, which considers their qualities and preferences. Important Hufflepuff characters include Cedric Diggory and Nymphadora Tonks. The house is sometimes unfairly treated as less important, but Rowling’s stories emphasize its courage and reliability.
