'city' is the definition.
(capital of Norway)

I cannot understand how the remainder of the clue works.

(Other definitions for oslo that I've seen before include "Nordic city" , "Capital city, called Kristiania until 1924" , "Norwegian city, formerly Kristiania" , "foreign port" , "Capital often frozen" .)
