 The Chapel of Our Lady of Sorrows ( Spanish : Capilla de Nuestra Señora de los <unk> ) , formerly known as the Chapel of the Lord 's Supper ( Spanish : Capilla de la Santa <unk> ) , was built in 1615 . It was originally dedicated to the Last Supper since a painting of this event was once kept here . It was later remodeled in a Neo @-@ classical style , with three altarpieces added by Antonio Gonzalez <unk> . The main altarpiece contains an image of the Virgin of Sorrows sculpted in wood and painted by Francisco <unk> , at the request of Emperor Maximilian I of Mexico . On the left @-@ hand wall a ladder leads to a series of crypts which hold most of the remains of past archbishops of Mexico . The largest and grandest of these crypts contains the remains of Juan de <unk> , the first archbishop of Mexico .
