Given a contract address, is there a way to find the block number at which it was deployed?

Does Etherscan's API provide information about this?

Etherscan api can give you the deployment txn hash, you can use that to figure out block number

yep etherscan api has this. You can also see creation hash on etherscan.

There might be an API.

One other way is to just use an RPC call with binary search, going between a min max block range until you find the block where the code for the contract existed
