As a distinguished historian, Gindely has left number of valuable historical works, written in German and Bohemian.

[1] The development of Gindely's perspective on Bohemian history reflected his different personal trajectories through the tumultuous events that happened during the first half of 19th century.

During the same time, Gindely was entrusted with the control of the library of Prince George Lobkowitz, which brought him in close connection with the literary interests of the leading families of the Bohemian nobility.

[2] Perhaps the most important of his numerous other works are: He wrote a history of Gabriel Bethlen in Hungarian, and edited the Monumenta historiae Bohemica.

Gindely's posthumous work, Geschichte der Gegenreformation in Böhmen, was edited by T. Tupetz (1894).
