If you are referring to the popular concept of a fiery, eternal place of punishment for sinners, no where!! This is a man-made concept fully illustrated by Dantes' Inferno - a sarcastict rebuttal to the current religous beliefs of his time.

Hell, the most common usage in Scripture, comes form the Hebrew word 'sheol' and the Greek word 'hades' both meaning grave or pit and this is found throughout the Scripture as the shared fate of all mankind after death. The other 2 words, gehenna refers to the Lake of Fire while tartaroo, used only once, as the restraining place of fallen Angels.
