The concept of a minimal closed cover of a continuum has been introduced
and studied in [S. Macías, Topology Proc 20 (1995), 191-205].
We provide a further investigation of this notion.
In particular, we show connections with several related notions and
answer questions concerning hereditarily indecomposable continua and
hereditarily locally connected ones.
Using the concept we define the strong covering property of continua and
study its connections with related concepts.
