The Mexico City Metropolitan Cathedral, also known as the Metropolitan Cathedral of the Assumption of the Most Blessed Virgin Mary into Heaven, is a prominent architectural and religious landmark in Mexico City. Located in the historic center, the cathedral is not only the largest and oldest church in Latin America but also the seat of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Mexico. Constructed between 1573 and 1813, the cathedral showcases a blend of architectural styles, such as Baroque, Neo-Classical, and Renaissance, reflecting the various stages of its construction. The facade comprises four sections, each adorned with intricately carved columns, statues, and reliefs. The bell towers house a total of 25 bells, with the Santa Maria de Guadalupe bell, weighing around 13, 000 kg, being the largest. The cathedral's interior is home to 16 chapels, each dedicated to a different saint and exhibiting unique artistic treasures, including paintings, sculptures, and altarpieces. Among the most noteworthy elements are the gilded Altar of the Kings, the Choir area with its ornately carved wooden seats, and the 18th-century organ, one of the largest in the Americas. As a result of Mexico City's unstable subsoil, the cathedral has experienced significant sinking and tilting, which has necessitated ongoing restoration efforts. The preservation work includes measures to reinforce the foundation, adjust the building's inclination, and restore artworks and structural elements affected by the movement.
