The Tower of Babel is traditionally considered to have occurred after the Flood, as described in the Book of Genesis. The narrative of the Flood is found in Genesis chapters 6-9, while the story of the Tower of Babel is in Genesis 11:1-9. This places the Tower of Babel in the post-flood timeline of biblical history.
Yes.
The Tower of Babel is famous for its biblical story in which humanity's attempt to build a tower reaching heaven leads God to confuse their language, causing them to scatter across the earth. This tale explains the origin of diverse languages and highlights themes of pride and unity.

A:The story of the Tower of Babel was added to Genesis quite late in Jewish history, during the Babylonian Exile. The exiled Jews, who had never before seen a great cosmopolitan city like Babylon, were in awe of the great ziggurut, a pyramid-like tower, and at the same time surprised to meet people who spoke so many different languages. They associated the tower, which seemed to reach the heavens, and the many strange languages, and so developed the story of the Tower of Babel. If we accept the mythology of the Tower of Babel, we can place it in the Plain of Shinar, but the real tower was in the city of Babylon.
The Tower of Babel is a biblical story found in Genesis, and its historical existence is debated, with no definitive archaeological evidence to confirm its age. The pyramids of Egypt, particularly the Great Pyramid of Giza, were constructed around 2580–2560 BCE. Since the Tower of Babel's narrative likely reflects events from a much earlier or concurrent period, it is difficult to establish a precise timeline. However, the pyramids are generally recognized as being older than the earliest references to the Tower of Babel.
Yes.
According to the Bible, the flood occurred during the time of Noah, while the story of the Tower of Babel follows several generations later. The time between the flood and the Tower of Babel is not explicitly specified, but it is thought to span many years, possibly centuries.
The tower of Babel was not really a tower but a place where all men could meet. It was the last vestige of civilization before the wilderness.
The Bible does not provide a specific number of years between the Great Flood and the Tower of Babel. According to the Bible, the Great Flood occurred during the time of Noah, while the Tower of Babel incident happened several generations later, during the time of Nimrod. Based on the genealogies provided in the Bible, estimates suggest that it could have been several hundred years between the two events.
I doubt it because of the great flood that occurred during the time of Noah, but it's possible that there might be something left in whatever area the tower of babel may be at. I myself am curious to know if anything from the Garden of Eden still remains. It was built after the flood!

Noah's ark (Gen 6) happened many years before the tower of Babel (Gen 11). Gen 11 discusses the flood as a past event. In the Tower of Babel narrative God does not destroy the tower nor the people but alters people's language so they cannot understand each other.
The Bible does not specify an exact height (or number of stories) for the Tower of Babel.

No, the Tower of Babel and the Mosque Tower are different structures. The Tower of Babel is a biblical story about a tower built to reach the heavens, while a Mosque Tower is a minaret attached to a mosque where the call to prayer is made.
