Aztec serpent repurposed. It's close to the Church of the Immaculate Conception and Jesus the Nazarene, another worn and dark cathedral but this one has the tomb of Hernando Cortes in a wall off the altar. One dark and mysterious ceiling mural remains at an entrance but nearly everything is white plaster, with a few cenotaphs of C19th notable citizens. I presume the revolutionary war caused a lot of destruction of old orders in New Spain.
