You will need to replace the whole upper case. Here's how: MacBook Pro 15" Unibody Mid 2009 Upper Case Replacement
Here's the US version part: MacBook Pro 15" Unibody (Mid 2009) Upper Case and Trackpad

Thats not true, you can replace just the keyboard (its alot of screws but its possible since i have the old here infront of me.)

Most of these came with non-removable keyboards. If you noticed the keyboard part is not listed separately. Some had about 50 screws to remove them.
Here's your model number MC240LL/A. You may be able to find one on eBay. Good Luck.
Yepp around 50 screws it was :) but sure is removabel :)
This is the keyboard i am looking for but in EUR design: http://i.ebayimg.com/03/!ByYMP+gEGk~$%28...

It is possible to replace only the keyboard but there are tons of little screws and took me all day to do and they are easily strippable (So get a good and correct size precision screw driver). I did resurrect a 13 macbook unibody that had liquid spilled over the keyboard (logic board was safe). Bottom line you can get replacement keyboard for cheap on ebay but takes a lot of time to install. Buying a top case case will save a lot of time but cost money. FYI: I'm going to try to resurrect another broken unibody I purchased on ebay and probably post a tutorial.

As a cheaper solution I suggest you check out KB Covers they have fairly cheap keyboard covers you can stick right over your keyboard without having to buy and install a whole keyboard. They also have all the EURO designs I believe, qwerty, azerty, etc.

Tnx for the answer, but my problem is that the keyboard is broken.

You can buy a keyboard-only replacement at aliexpress.com for example.
You have to choose a fitting keyboard... your macbook version and the keyboard which fits the housing (US and Euro Keyboards for example are different... )
They cost about 40$ and will be sent all around the world.
As others have already said, the keyboard is fixet with 50 or 60 tiny screws... so buy a good screwdriver and take your time.

The official way - replace the whole top cover case with the keyboard and trackpad attached.
Unofficial way - replace just the keyboard.
Here's an example.
