In this article, we define Minkowski Pythagorean-hodograph (MPH) curves in the Minkowski plane $\mathbb{R}^{1,1}$ and obtain $C^1$ Hermite interpolations for MPH quintics in the Minkowski plane $\mathbb{R}^{1,1}$. We also have the envelope curves of MPH curves, and make surfaces of revolution with exact rational offsets. In addition, we present an example of $C^1$ Hermite interpolations for MPH rational curves in $\mathbb{R}^{2,1}$ from those in $\mathbb{R}^{1,1}$ and a suitable MPH preserving mapping.
