Abstract
We construct a continuous non-invertible minimal transformation of an arbitrary solenoid. Since solenoids, as all other compact monothetic groups, also admit minimal homeomorphisms, our result allows one to classify solenoids among continua admitting both invertible and non-invertible continuous minimal maps.
